Arsenal star Bukayo Ayoyinka Saka, embarked on an extraordinary journey to the birth place of his Nigerian Father, Bariga, a suburb in Lagos.

On Wednesday, the popular UK-based Arsenal fan Kelechi Anyikude and Bukayo Saka were spotted leaving the airport at Murtala Muhammed International in Lagos.

Saka visited the Bariga district, the following day on his arrival sharing a video of himself in all-white attire, receiving a warm welcome from Nigerians.
