Omeruo, currently on loan at Kasimpasa, has represented Nigeria at almost all cadres.
His first was at the 2009 U-17 World Cup hosted by Nigeria.
Since then the charismatic defender has featured for the Flying and Super Eagles.
For the senior national team, he has garnered 31 caps after making his debut in 2013.
Though he’s yet to play an official game for the Blues, Omeruo has matured into one of the best defenders on the continent.
As you’d expect, his teammates, friends and fans were not left out of the party.
Happy birthday to the defence minister himself @omeruo22 Great and blessed moments in years to… https://t.co/pmnTDlhVDt
