Nigerian international and Chelsea FC star, John Mikel Obi is definitely “living it up”!
ESPN‘s football lifestyle show “Give It Up For Lenton” recently visited the the footballer at his home in the UK.
We discovered various tidbits from watching this video:

  • John Mikel Obi loves the colour – WHITE – most of his furniture and fittings are white!
  • John Mikel Obi doesn’t cook – He gets his meals delivered
  • John Mikel Obi doesn’t know how to play the piano
  • John Mikel Obi has a huge indoor pool
  • John Mikel Obi loves to dance to hiphop

He seems like a nice laidback guy! Wonder if he’s single…

    • Igbo Fille October 31, 2011 at 1:21 PM

      They say Kalu is Igbotic cos he was determined to hold fast to his igbotic English, Mikel is speaking in accent now they say he is forming. You can never please the world. BN when I clicked I thought I was going to see the inside of the house sha. This house looks good but I want to see the big pool inside cos me I like inside pool wella. Not dying for Mikel sha.
