Former Super Eagles skipper, Vincent Enyeama, appears to be making good use of his vacation.
The 34-year-old, who had a torrid season with his club Lille, is currently holidaying in his hometown, Uyo, Akwa Ibom.
And one of the surprises awaiting the experienced goalkeeper was his old friends who came visiting fully kitted in his club’s attire.
Easily noticeable is that some of Enyeama’s visitors were potbellied in contrast to the goalkeeper whose job demands that he keeps his shape.
That notwithstanding, the veteran shot-stopper took to Twitter on Saturday to express his delight at meeting his acquaintances.

Enyeama endured an indifferent campaign with Lille where The Great Danes finished in a disappointing 11th position in the French Ligue 1.
The Nigerian managed only eight clean sheets in 32 appearances.
Now it seems like there will be more competition for Enyeama ahead of his sixth season in France after the club captured Burkina Faso international goalkeeper, Herve Koffi.
Rather, the 34-year-old insists he will help the youngster blend in France.
“Koffi is a fantastic young goalkeeper and I’m very proud to see another African come to the club,” Enyeama told BBC Sport on Thursday.
“It’s heart-warming to see a young African goalkeeper earn a move to Europe; it says a lot about his qualities.
“My advice to him is that he should focus on what has brought him to France, keep working hard and concentrate on his job.
“I’ll be available to help him settle and give him all the necessary support he needs.”
Enyeama retired from international football in 2015 after making over a century appearance for his country.
