Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, has distributed 2,000 tricycles, bags of rice, cartons of noodles and other food items to the residents of Olusosun in Lagos State, where he grew up.

Osimhen distributed the items to the residents at a recent ceremony that culminated in a football tournament in the area.

The Napoli striker, who has been making goal-scoring exploits on loan at Galatasaray in Turkey, said it was his way of giving back to the community that supported him.

The former Lille striker said: “The food items should be distributed to our mothers, while the Keke should be distributed to my fellow youths.

Osimhen’s act has been met with praise from fans and members of the Olusosun community, with many expressing gratitude for his kindness.
