After helping Bayer Leverkusen to their first-ever Bundesliga title in the club’s 120-year history, no one is more proud of Nigerian striker, Victor Boniface, than his grandmother, Lucy Okoh, who enrolled him at an academy in Akure, the Ondo State capital some years ago, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.
On Sunday, Boniface scored the opening goal in the 5-0 thrashing of Werdern, helping Bayer Leverkusen win the Bundesliga with five games to spare.
Aside from ending the 11-year reign of Bayern Munich, Boniface and his teammates still have a chance to end the league season unbeaten, just as they are still in contention for two more titles; the DFB Pokal and the Europa League.
Having won two league titles with Norwegian club Bodø/Glimt in 2020 and 2021, the Bundesliga title is his biggest title so far and his grandma is happy to have shared part of the moments with him.
