Football player Odion Ighalo has talked about how important his Christian religion is to him and his profession, saying he doesn’t care if people call him a “Jesus boy” since he knows that God is the reason behind his success.

He clarified that although his mother was Muslim and he visited the mosque as a boy, he ultimately discovered his own faith in the Catholic church.

According to a 12:00 video from the Echoo Room podcast, he feels that God provided him the chance to succeed rather than his superior skill level.

Because of this belief, he is not hesitant to openly declare his faith, saying that his mother is the most important person in his life after God.

Odion Ighalo said, “I’m a Christian. I’m not a perfect human being, but I know there’s God up there that blessed me with everything I have today. So I don’t joke with my faith. I don’t care what you call me. I don’t care the noise outside. After everything, God comes first.”

”People will call me Christian boy, call me a Jesus lover, call me Jesus boy and all that. But at the end, God is still God in my life. That’s why I said after God in my life, because I put him first, is my mother. I don’t joke with my faith. I don’t joke with it. I don’t care what anybody says. I know God is still with me.”
