Origin
Agada’s origin, however, seems to be comparable to Victor Osimhen’s early difficult times in that his mother is an Otukpo Benue state farmer, and his father is a hunter.
Parents and life story
Charles Agada’s parents Mr. and Mrs. Agada.
“His father and mother are both hunters and farmers. They both farm and hunt in the village,” says Raymond Hassan, Chief Scout of Mavlon FC, in an interview with Soccernet.ng
“Agada is a little boy we picked from Otukpo, Benue State, and we took him to Lagos, where we put him through school [Palmvill College Lagos] and tried to develop his football skills,” Hassan said.
He added: “He is doing well in school, and when he first arrived, he couldn’t speak English very well. But he is presently doing quite well. He goes to school in Lagos, and he is in JSS 3,”
Many players fade into obscurity following their first appearance in a major event, but Hassan said that the soon-to-be 17-year-old sensation is motivated to reach high heights in football.
“He [Agada] is someone who is very determined to play football at the highest level. He is very hardworking and very disciplined
“Agada is a very strong player and Mavflon FC is training him to meet the standard of European football. he is naturally a strong player,” he added.
Football players without a dream are like to planes without pilots. When questioned about the lad’s motivation, Hassan said, “His dream is to become a professional footballer and break records at the national and global level.”
“He wants to become African player of the year someday, and he is working towards that starting from what he did on Saturday [against South Africa]”
Nduka Ugbade’s team will meet Burkina Faso in the quarterfinals of the 14th edition of the biennial international youth football event. Hassan is certain that the new Amokachi will make the nation proud on Thursday.
“He will do us proud. I am optimistic about him making Nigeria proud. He is ready,” he said.
