The midfielder, together with team-mate Olamilekan Adams, sat down to discuss life on and off the park, and working with Neil Lennon, who was likened to a father figure by the latter.

They did so in an SPFL feature focusing on the African players who are part of one of Scotland’s most diverse dressing rooms at Dunfermline Athletic.

Oyirwoth, a Uganda international, and Adams, capped at under-20 level by his native Nigeria, live with Ghanian Nurudeen Abdulai - also revealing who is the best cook - and their friendship with team-mate Alfons Amade, who plays for Mozambique.

Midfielder Oyirwoth, who is on loan from MLS outfit New England Revolution, and forward Adams, who penned a two-year deal after a spell with Czech club, SK Dynamo České Budějovice, both arrived at East End Park in August.

They featured in a video produced by the SPFL who, alongside the SWPL and SPFL Trust, are continuing to support 'Show Racism the Red Card' ahead of its 30th anniversary.

As part of a week-long campaign focused on celebrating the rich mix of nationalities and backgrounds across the leagues, the SPFL has compiled data on appearance holders from across the 127 nations that have been represented in the league since its launch in 2013/14.

That is made up of stars from across five continents, who will be celebrated on the league’s social media channels across the week, including Oyirwoth and Adams.

Having moved in with Abdulai, they spoke of the trio "living like brothers", but that they each cook for themselves - although Oyirwoth conceded that Adams holds the superior culinary skills.

The pair agreed, though, that taking Athletic back to the top flight for the first time since 2012 was their ambition, with Oyirwoth noting: "I want to be a legend at Dunfermline Athletic at 19 and help them get promotion.

"The fans have been amazing and I love it in Scotland.

"To take Dunfermline to the Premiership...that's the goal."

Both players were also full of praise for their boss.

"He tries to make you laugh, just to make sure you're okay, like, everything is just okay for you," Adams said.

"He's just a great man. He treats everybody like his own son."

Oyirwoth noted: "He's really very good, a very great manager to me.

"Where he has been coaching, before coming here, it's incredible.

"That played a very big role.

"Making sure you're fine, making sure everything is fine, asking you about your family, how they're doing, how everything is going.

"It's really very great that you have someone who is always behind you."

The campaign in support of Show Racism the Red Card has been timed to support Black History Month, and the charity's 'Weekend of Action' which will take place across SPFL and SWPL fixtures.

Neil Doncaster, SPFL chief executive, added: "We are proud of the many nationalities and cultures that make Scottish football what it is. With 127 nationalities represented across the SPFL’s four divisions, since the league launched, the game’s diversity and inclusive spirit are clear to see.

"The personal stories shared by Allan and Olamilekan about life at the club, living with Nurudeen, and their friendship with Alfons, are a powerful reminder of the positive impact an inclusive game can have and the value that diversity brings to Scottish football."
