Asisat Oshoala teams up again with Emzor for Nigerian girls

Asisat Oshoala has been firing on all cylinders this season for her team Barcelona in Spain. In some of her recent games, she has come out the heroine for her team, recently, netting the winner and only goal as her team overcame hard fighting Sporting de Huelva, and following that up on 26th October with a brace as her team demolished Real Madrid 4:0.

Of note is that she is also scoring elsewhere, on the social responsibility front. Asisat is one of those players who understand the import of responsibility, knowing that the privilege she enjoys as an international star started from the alternately dusty and muddy street corners of Lagos. She makes sure to go back there every now and then to give a hand to the many kids who look up to her and would like to be like Asisat sometime in their future.

In this venture, she has quite a number of partners. One of the strongest is Emzor, owned by a woman, and mentor to men and women, the redoubtable Stella Okoli. One woman to another and then to many others; that’s how the Emzor/asisat partnership is shaped. Asisat’s major role as Emzor Brand Ambassador is to help with the Emzor Football Clinic for Girls which is now in its 5th edition.

Okoli described Oshoala as ‘an inspiring young woman, who is also a great role model to young women in Nigeria. We are very proud of all her accomplishments and effort towards encouraging under-privileged girls through her foundation”. Reason why according to Okoli, “we are renewing her contract today as Emzor Brand Ambassador so that she can continue helping girls in need”.
