Description
Growing up in Ibadan, Nigeria, in the 1960s and '70s, football was a major part of Sunny Lambe's life; while sport took a back seat when he moved to London in 1987, Sunny - now a councillor in Southwark - still holds the beautiful game, and his beloved Arsenal, very dear. Sunny spoke to us about his life in Nigeria and London, and much more besides.
