Rudiger, who was born to Sierra Leonean parents in Berlin, German underlined his love for his African roots with the benevolent act.
After falling to a 1-0 loss with Chelsea on Saturday, Rudiger met with President Julius Maada Bio at the United Kingdom-Africa Investment summit in London to support Sierra Leone’s Free Quality Education initiative.
“Sierra Leone is my home. I’m not the talking type of a person, I am about action. You can count on us and do not hesitate,” Rudiger said.
