Former Orlando Pirates Star Ventures into Multi-Million-Rand Real Estate

Former Orlando Pirates midfielder Onyekachi Okonkwo appears to be enjoying success beyond his football career after venturing into the real estate business in Nigeria, where he is reportedly selling a luxurious property worth millions of naira.

The retired footballer, popularly known as “Tico” during his playing days, recently took to his official Instagram account to showcase an impressive property that is currently available for sale.

On Monday evening, the 44-year-old former midfielder, who hails from Aba, Nigeria, shared a video on his Instagram Stories displaying a magnificent triple-storey, five-bedroom fully detached duplex located in Ikota, Lekki, Lagos.

Okonkwo, who is now the founder and owner of Nino10 Group of Companies, revealed that the luxurious property is on the market for ₦700 million, approximately R8.5 million.

The former Buccaneers star appears to have successfully transitioned from professional football into entrepreneurship, particularly in the Nigerian property market.

His latest business venture has sparked conversations about his financial success after retirement and how much he could be earning from his real estate investments compared to his football career.

What are your thoughts? Do you think Onyekachi Okonkwo is now making more money through real estate than he did during his playing days at Orlando Pirates? And where would you rank him among the greatest central midfielders to have represented the Buccaneers during the PSL era?
