From Oro to Turf Moor: Saka’s Grandmother Joins Arsenal Celebration
Bukayo Saka shared a special moment after Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Burnley when his grandmother travelled from Oro in Kwara State to Turf Moor. She wore traditional attire and stood proudly beside him as the full-time whistle blew. Images on social media capture Saka embracing his grandmother before celebrating on the pitch with his fiancée, Tolami Benson. The 24-year-old provided the assist for Kai Havertz’s winning goal and beamed alongside Tolami in casual denim. Saka’s Nigerian roots run deep. His mother hails from Ijomu-Oro in Kwara State, and his full name reflects strong Yoruba heritage.
