Speaking to reporters at a press briefing held at Flourish Resorts yesterday, 25 November 2014, Fatima Sillah, Marketing Manager/Cooperate Affairs Officer of Flourish Resorts, said Kanu will spend 3 days in The Gambia.
The 38-year-old, who is the Ambassador of Flourish Resorts, is coming to The Gambia for endorsement of products for the five-star Hotel, Ms Sillah added.
“Kanu is into hospitality, so we wanted to bring somebody that represents exactly what we do,” she stated, while describing Kanu as a good image who is well respected around the world.
A businessman, Kanu was a great player. He is also an entertainer with a good image and was a well-known personality around the world, she further said of the Ex-Nigeria star.
