Legendary Nigerian football star Jay-Jay Okocha recently
opened up about the struggles he faced when he started out as a young
footballer.
According to Okocha, the first country he traveled to in
Europe was Germany. There, he encountered a great deal of racist actions from
people.
The football star said he never knew he was Black until
he went to this Germany and in order to tackle the problem of racism he was
facing, he made a determination to 'dribble' his opponents on the field and
play so well till all they could to do is to ''chop grass''.
