Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Saturday hosted Arsenal winger, Bukayo Saka who is in the state on vacation.
Saka, who is of Nigerian descent, had sent the local football community in the country into frenzy when a video of him strolling the street of Lagos broke the internet.

He disclosed he is an Arsenal fan, while noting how proud he is of their ‘incredible’ run in the Premier league with a young team.
He wrote, “Exciting day at the State House, Marina today as I had the pleasure of hosting my favorite @Arsenal player, Star Boy Bukayo Saka. @BukayoSaka87.
“I also enjoyed receiving my own signed Saka Jersey.
“As a proud #Gunner, I’m incredibly proud of their inspiring run in the Premier League with such a young team.
“Their determination has motivated many and shown us the power of youth. We’re committed to bringing that same spirit to grassroots football in Lagos.
“Together, let’s create opportunities for our talented young players.
