Late Rashidi Yekini, one of the greatest Footballers Nigeria has ever produced, was celebrated yesterday as Nigeria marked her 60 Independence Day Anniversary.

One of his three daughters, Yemisi, took to her page to share a photo of him celebrating Nigeria’s first goal at the FIFA World Cup…

Sharing the iconic photo, she wrote;

Today, I would like to celebrate my dad, who was one of the greatest footballers to come out of Nigeria. Rashidi Yekini.
