Israel Adesanya Spotted Clubbing In Lagos
The mixed martial arts star shared snippets of his outing on his Instagram stories, capturing the attention of fans and fellow celebrities.
Adesanya’s night out followed a busy week that included a return to his hometown of Esa-Oke in Osun State, where he was warmly celebrated by the community and the traditional ruler, the Owa-Omiran of Esa-Oke, Oba Adeyemi Adediran.
The Nigerian-born athlete, who arrived in Lagos on Wednesday, was greeted as a hero despite his recent UFC 305 loss to South African fighter Dricus Du Plessis.
