A Nigerian footballer, Emmanuel Emenike has told his followers never to give up in life.

His wife, Olasunkanmi, took to her Instagram page to shower prayers on him.

She wrote; ”Happy Birthday Sugs. May this new season bring you the wisdom,knowledge and understanding to be the best version of yourself that I strongly believe and know you can be.

The joy of the Lord shall be your strength. May God watch over you and everything that concerns you.

May He keep you as the apple of His eyes, and shield you from all evil. This new year, I hide your life with Christ. You will increase on every side. Lines shall fall upon you in pleasant places, your lot shall be secured in Jesus name. Lack and insufficiency will not be your portion.

May the Lord shower you with His unfailing mercy, unchanging grace and unlimited favour. May you move from glory to glory in Jesus name.

We love you Daddy Mich @9iceofficial”
