Iconic Ekiti State All Stars footballer and Secretary, Nigeria Union of Journalists, Ekiti State Council, Kayode Babatuyi, has decided to temporarily hang up his boots.

In a Facebook post over the weekend, the dependable versatile player decided to call it quit temporarily, owing to the persistent knee injury.



The post reads: “Keeping fit has been my desire especially with the round leather game but persistent injury in my knee has been a barrier recently, but yesterday I hit the pitch with my skills but sincerely, I couldn’t do well.

“So on this note, I temporarily wish to take some time off, If it is the will of God, I will be back. Special appreciation to my fellow colleagues at the All Stars International.”
