Super Eagles forward, Kelechi Iheanacho has visited Governor Yahaya Bello.
The Governor is seeking support from sportsmen, women and popular figures as he shows interest to run in the 2023 presidential election.
The Leicester City striker’s visit came just a few days after former Chelsea star, John Mikel Obi visited the Governor.
In a post on the Governor’s official Facebook page, Bello said: “Finally, Senior Man Kells Kelechi Iheanacho don cut soap for me!
“It is always a pleasure to meet a teaming, Patriotic, Vibrant #nigerian #Youth. Congratulations once again on your #facup win.”
Although the reason for Iheanacho’s visit is not yet known, it might have to do with Bello’s ambition to contest for Nigeria’s presidency in 2023.
Bello had on more than one occasion declared that Nigerians want him to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari come 2023.
He had in recent times received former Super Eagles stars such as Austin Jay-Jay Okocha, Kanu Nwankwo, Tijani Babangida, and Garba Lawal.
