Awoniyi who was received by the Proprietor of Adetunji Nursery and Primary School, Mr AbdulRahman Adetunji, was conducted around the school premises. 

The Nottingham Forest forward who was welcomed to the school premises to a large scream from the pupils later addressed them. 

The Super Eagles marksman urged the pupils never to stop dreaming of becoming whatever they desired to become in the future. 

“This man (Adetunji) standing beside me is a huge inspiration, he made me the Games’ Prefect while I was in Primary 4.

“He was always encouraging us, his support then was a driving force and I am where I am today because I listened to the teachers. 

“You need to listen to the teachers and follow their instructions always,” Awoniyi said.
