Super Eagles legend Nwankwo Kanu is in a celebratory mood as his son, Iain Kachi Kanu, marks his 18th birthday.
The football icon shared heartwarming posts on social media, including a family photo of himself, his wife Amara, and their son standing proudly beside a birthday cake. Dressed in traditional attire, Kanu beamed with pride as he wrapped his arms around Kachi.
In his message, the former Arsenal and Super Eagles striker wrote:
“Happy birthday my son IAIN KACHI KANU. God will give you all your heart desires and God will bless and open every door for you. Am happy to see your growth and I thank God. Enjoy your birthday, me and your mum are very happy and I know one day you will make us proud.”
Amara Kanu also joined in the celebration with a touching video on her social media page, accompanied by a heartfelt note:
