Fulham and Super Eagles midfielder Alex Iwobi has revealed what he loves about being a Nigerian.
The former Arsenal star said Nigerians have unique mannerisms which make them stand out.
He added that Nigerians are “so loud,” especially the Yorubas.
Iwobi stated this in a recent interview with Kiss Fresh, London, United Kingdom.
The host asked, “What do you love about Nigerians and being Nigerian?”
Iwobi replied, “You can smell a Nigerian from a mile away. Our mannerisms are so Nigerian, especially Yoruba people. Yoruba people are so loud.
“My favourite thing about the country is that everyone is so welcoming, rich in hospitality and it’s like one big family. Everyone who is doing well tries to give back to their communities. Every footballer that I am with always tries to give back to where they come from. That’s an amazing thing.
“The first thing I do whenever I land in Nigeria and I’m in my hotel room, I order pounded yam and egusi.”
