Benjamin Aidoo, one of the four African pallbearers who have gone viral for a video showing them dancing with a coffin, has expressed his admiration for Lionel Messi.
The video has become a particularly popular meme this year, with the four rising to internet fame.”My favourite player is Messi, I love him,” Aidoo told Cadena Ser.
“I like how he plays and the goals he scores.”Furthermore, he’s not selfish. That’s very important.”I love football and I love playing it, it’s one of my hobbies.”I’m a Barcelona fan, I like them a lot, but I’m also a fan of Messi, who is a great player.”
Aidoo also spoke about becoming an internet sensation and the story behind the video.
“My opinion is that we have to celebrate death,” he said.”Why? Because when a person leaves us, we have to remember what they’ve done during their life.”
