A ball was the best gift anyone could give him. He would take the ball and leave the house, so he wouldn\u2019t be tied to the television. Ronaldo would walk in the morning and only come at night for dinner. I knew where he was.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cHe was born with that gift. A mother has to let her child choose what he wants. Mothers are the ones who have to set an example for their children. When I saw Ronaldo playing as a little boy, I realised he had a gift for that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
