Burnaboy Launched Football Academy

Nigerian singer and Grammy Award winner Damini Ogulu, also known as Burna Boy, has launched a football academy with training centres in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt.

Infographics about the academy surfaced on the internet on Monday, and further checks revealed that the academy is open to players from ages 4–15 as well as players between 16 and 21 years.

“We aim to create an environment where kids can learn the fundamentals of football, combined with education, discipline, and technique, to excel in life beyond the sport,” the academy’s vision on their website read.

“We strive to engage parents in sports education, emphasising its importance alongside academic pursuits.”
