Hello everyone, I'm Manato, a Nigerian expatriate!


Today, I have some very exciting news to report. And now――
 Nigerian baseball player Udo bought us a glove!
(These are S-class gloves made with Japanese leather.)


This is the first purchase by a Nigerian player .

Thank you so much, Udo ✨️

He wasn't really familiar with sports in general,
One day, he became interested in me like this.

"Are Japanese companies coming to Nigeria to promote baseball?"


That curiosity led me to participate in baseball practice sessions held every Saturday.

Since then, he has been attending the class every week without fail.

Now, he has become a mood maker on the team, known as a player who loves baseball too much !

And he's a huge Shohei Ohtani fan!


Apparently, he always uses Ohtani as his character in baseball games.
It seems that his motivation to play also comes from admiration.

After practice the other day, he told me about his dream.


"In the future, I want to play baseball in Japan or America."

His words were filled with strong determination.

I hope that he will become the first Nigerian professional baseball player and play an active role on the world stage.
I sincerely hope that he will become someone who will further liven up baseball in Nigeria!

This blog will continue to provide updates on the baseball training sessions in Nigeria and the players' progress.
We look forward to your continued support.
