Daniel Amokachi has blessed some residents of Kaduna communities with food items to help mitigate the effect of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amokachi, who has huge followership in Kaduna where he was born, had played football with local club Ranchers Bees in his early days before blossoming into stardom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former Nigeria international brought huge relief to more than 1,100 families, distributing food items and other provisions under the Amokachi Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is my little contribution to help the needy in this covid-19 period,\u201d said Amokachi, who currently is Nigeria\u2019s football ambassador.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI normally do this 4-6 times in a year to assist people who are in need. I consider it a special honour and privilege by God to assist the less privileged in our society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI will continue to do this as long as God grants me the grace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

The gesture, added Amokachi, was mostly to women since mothers are responsible for the catering of the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beneficiaries thanked Amokachi for the gesture, saying it as timely and special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While with the Super Eagles, Amokachi played in two world Cup finals in 1994 and 1998 and was a member of the Gold-winning Atlanta 1996 Olympics team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since after injury forced him to retire, the former Everton star has coached local club Nassarawa United, National U-23 team as well serving as an assistant Super Eagles coach under late Stephen Keshi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
