Nigerian Defender, William Troost-Ekong Celebrates 24th Birthday With Victory Over Cameroon

Super Eagles of Nigeria Defender, William Troost-Ekong nicknamed ‘King Kong’ took to social media to share a photos of him with his partner defender Leo Balogun as he celebrated his 24th birthday on September 1, 2017 the same day the national team defeated Cameroon by 4 goals to nothing in a 2018 AFCON qualifying game.

His post reads, ‘Today I celebrate my 24th birthday. Each year I can only look back and thank the Lord Jesus Christ for what he has done in my life. There is no birthday present like a answered prayer. And for me to represent 180 million Nigerians today as a Etinan boy here in my hometown on the road to the World Cup, that is the work of God. Dreams come true. Thanks to everyone for all the messages already I will read them all tonight after our game. 
Now we focus on our task ahead. Couldn’t wish for a better birthday! 4-0 win against Cameroon. Proud to be part of this team. Thanks for all the fans and everyone who made it a special day’.
