(“My Love for the Game of Soccer Will See Me Accomplish My Dream” – Ojimadu Samuel Favour) For Ojimadu Samuel Favour, football isn’t just a game—it’s the rhythm of his heartbeat, the focus of his dreams, and the fuel behind his daily grind. Born on March 31, 2007, in Rivers State, Nigeria, Samuel’s journey into the world of football began at just six years old. Surrounded by brothers who loved the game and growing up in a neighborhood where football was a language every boy spoke, Samuel’s destiny was written early—on dusty pitches, with worn-out balls, and limitless ambition.
“I fell in love with the game watching Lionel Messi,” Samuel shares. “I was amazed by his intelligence, his skill, and how effortlessly he made the game look beautiful. I’ve always wanted to play like him.” That admiration would blossom into a deep commitment to the sport, one that continues to define who Samuel is and who he’s determined to become.
Today, Samuel plays as a right-back for the youth team of Abia Warriors Fida in Nigeria, though his versatility has seen him contribute both defensively and offensively across the field. With areputation for long-range passes, tactical aggression, and incredible stamina, he stands out not just for his technical ability but also for his discipline and work ethic. “I’m someone who can go beyond 90 minutes,” he says confidently. “I’m focused on improving my dribbling and becoming even more efficient with the ball.”
Samuel has tasted success at grassroots levels, collecting medals and trophies through primary school competitions, academy tournaments, and private leagues. But for him, the goal remains far beyond the local fields. “My dream is to sign a professional contract outside Nigeria—specifically in Europe,” he explains. “In five years, I see myself as one of the top Nigerian footballers in the world, hopefully playing in one of Europe’s elite leagues.” Barcelona, Spain’s iconic football powerhouse, holds a special place in Samuel’s heart—not just because of its legacy, but because of his childhood idol, Messi.
