The World Aids Day Charity Match

MEHN!!!!! this .... was .... FUN!!!!

I mean seeing my football idols and a host of celebrities going head to head just to draw attention to, and in their own way fight the ills and stigmatization that the HIV/ AIDS epidemic has caused was magnificent.

Being a media sponsor to the event .... priceless.

With people like Jay Jay Okocha, Daniel Amokachi, Celestine Babayaro, Emmanuel Babayaro, Mobi Oparaku on one team ( Team Super Eagles )

and

M.I, Sound Sultan, Dr. Sid, Segun Arinze, Nonso Diobi, Uti Nwachukwu, Afeez Ayetoro (Saka) on another (Team Entertainers)

My expectations were totally met as the eagles whooped the entertainers 8 goals to 3, Okocha scoring a Hat-Trick with relative ease.
The entertainers put up a fight but , when you've got the super eagles team that won the 1996 Olympics gold medal in football coming at you there isnt much you can do  .........

All in all a great day .
