you should add that his hero in football is former Cameroon player Patrick Mboma, and George pays homage to him by coping his goal celebration from the 1998 world cup finals.

Nationality

Though Elokobi prefers representing Cameroon, he will have to be considered to be a Somali up to the moment in which he should be called by Cameroon.

When he is called by Cameroon, he will be able to be considered to be, officially, a (naturalized) Cameroonian footballer.--Kolins (talk) 23:12, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know for sure where he was born? I've put Mogadishu into the article, but the new reference I have put in for his international call up seems to suggest he is from Mamfe (Cameroon). Five Mile Walk (talk) 00:39, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have now taken the part about him being born in Somalia out, as I'm unsure that it is correct. Five Mile Walk (talk) 10:05, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
