Jay-Jay Okocha: The Money Lessons, Highs & Lows Behind Africa’s Greatest Football Magician
Description
Augustine "Jay-Jay" Okocha is not only one of Nigeria’s greatest ever footballers — he’s one of Africa’s most gifted to ever grace the game. From dazzling stepovers in Frankfurt and PSG, to battling legends like Keane, Viera, and Gerrard in the English Premier League, Okocha carved a place in football history.
But behind the flair lies the untold story: the pressures of fame, the silence after retirement, and the hard financial lessons every African player must learn.
In this exclusive episode of The Long Form, recorded in Kigali at the SportsBiz Africa Forum, we dive into Okocha’s career highs and lows, his views on Rwanda’s progress, the future of African football, and what legacy he hopes to leave behind.
