Mikel Obi Obtained New Nickname In Brazil

John Obi Mikel of Nigeria who double as the Dream Team IV and Olympic Team Nigeria captain, has been handed a nickname by his teammates at the ongoing Rio Olympics following his fatherly role and influential performances for the team.

The 29-year old has been a huge source of motivation for the Dream Team both on and off the pitch, and has now been aptly nicknamed ‘Odogwu’, which is an Igbo word that means ‘hero’, when loosely translated.
