A Nigerian boy was reportedly lucky when Victor Boniface gifted him a nice football boot at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.

The Beyern Leverkusen star was in Uyo where he joined other Super Eagles players for a match against the Amavubi of Rwanda during AFCON qualifiers.

In a video shared on X by sports radio Brila FM, the boy came out to say he sold the football boots that same day.

According to him, a footballer had approached him in the stadium, wanting to buy the boots, so he did not hesitate to make quick cash with them.
