Ruud Gullit Admires Zuriel’s Accomplishment

Within her very busy schedules, travelling within Lagos and then to Ekiti State a few days ago to speak to children about the importance of Financial Literacy, Zuriel still made some time for new friends and admirers.

Dutch former national Football Captain and best known for his incredible and dazzling midfield soccer skills - Ruud Gullit, was in Lagos to promote the UEFA Cup and football across the state.  He found out about Zuriel Oduwole, who is Ethiopian Airlines Global brand Ambassador, and Heritage Banks Financial Literacy Ambassador, and was highly impressed by her accomplishments as an advocate for Girl Childs Education across Africa.

 

“What position do you play”, he asked? ”How is your project Going”, he continued in his flavored perfect Dutch English accent, when they met in the Lagos heat on Victoria Island. He was excited she is an active sports player [Basketball and Football] , and hopes she would one day visit his native country of Suriname to speak to the young Girls in that South American nation on the importance of Education, and active sports to stay physically fit.
