Lamide Akintobi is not the only celebrant today. It’s also Polish Man turned Nigerian big boy, Marek Zmyslowski’s birthday, so it’s only right we gush about him too.

If you know Marek, you know he’s hot. We are completely obsessed with him. And if you don’t know him, here are 11 reasons you should strive to:

1. He looks like this.

 

If you’re a man reading this, have you given up yet?

2. With that beard.

Sweaty men are still in right? We are just asking.

11. He’s Nigerian by association.

You know the saying “Show me your friends and I’ll tell you who you are. Well, it applies to Marek. How many white people do you know that have Nigerian names aka Marek Chinedu?
