Nigerian footballer Emmanuel Emenike has converted to Islam. According
to Turkish daily Fanatik, Emenike failed to join the squad up for
breakfast on Saturday. When asked by coach Vitor Pereira’s why he didn’t
show up for breakfast, Emenike replied “I’m fasting.” Pereira however
replied: “You’re not a Muslim,” insisting that Emenike is a Christian.
He still stood his ground saying “I became a Muslim, I am a Muslim,”
