Photos: Chelsea’s number 12 – Mikel Obi takes centre stage in the Blues’ UCL trophy parade

 

Nigeria’s John Obi Mikel was the cynosure and the centre of attention during the club’s UEFA Champions League and FA Cup trophies parade round the city of Lodon. Mikel was prominently seen jubilating close to where the club’s owner, Roman Abramovich was sitting at the back of the truck.

This is due to the fact that his jersey number at the club is 12 and 2012 happens to be the year when The Pensioners finally landed their holy grail. Every member of the club wore blue-coloured CHAMPIONS jerseys with number 12 (Mikel’s number) written on it.

Could it be destiny or coincidence? Mbok, congratulations to our Nigerian brother! The feat no be beans !
