Chika Wali is a Nigerian football player who last played as a centre back for Ozone in the I-League 2nd Division.
[1] From the grounds of River State in Nigeria to Pune, this solidly built Nigerian has come some distance in every sense of the phrase.
Incidentally, Chika, in his early days wanted to be a striker – he loved scoring goals – but a coach said that he would go much further in the game if he played back considering his height and physique.
Later a scout spotted him and got him a contract to play for a club in the neighboring country of Benin, a two hours drive from Chika's place in Nigeria.
Hugely popular with the fans and his team-mates, Chika has shown commendable loyalty to PFC.
