Arsenal and French football legend, Thierry Henry, stirred laughter in the face of Nigerians during his meeting with United Bank of Africa’s (UBA) CEO, Tony Elumelu, as he greeted his kids in pidgin.
As seen in the captured moment shared on X, the UBA boss had put a video call through to his sons Tony and Tobi, showing them the Arsenal legend.
Collecting the phone from Elumelu to greet the twins, Thierry Henry asked them “How bodies” to the awe of other guests in the room.
Elumelu had joined President Bola Tinubu in Paris, France for a three-day State Visit.
NPO reported that Elumelu had, in the course of the visit, signed bi-lateral agreement with the French government in an effort to extend UBA’s service to France.
