Nigerian? Say what?

Nov 05, 2015 I bet you didn’t know this person is Nigerian…..Nnamdi Asomugha

This young-ish man, Nnamdi Asomugha was born July 6, 1981. For those of you who do not recognise his face, Asomugha is an American football cornerback for the San Fransisco 49ers of the National Football League (NFL). More on the run-up to his career? Asomugha played college football for the University of California, Berkeley, blessings knocked on his door when he was drafted in the first round of the 2003 NFL Draft by the Oakland Raiders. Not only did he play for them, he also played for the Philadelphia Eagles. He was notoriously known as one of the best shutdown corners in the NFL for many years.

More information about his early life? Nnamdi Asomugha was born to Nigerian Igbo parents in Lafayette, Louisiana but moved to Los Angeles, California where he was raised. When it comes to education, it appears Asomugha went to a number of schools attending Leuzinger High School in Lawndale, California and Bishop Montgomery High School in Torrance, California before transferring to Narbonne High School in Harbor City, California where he graduated playing high school basketball and football…that’s enough information to make us proud to call him Nigerian, right?

Guess which Hollywood beauty this man is married to…Kerry Washington! (I’ve always known that she has good taste)
