He tells Our News his visits are for more than just luxury and leisure.

Johnson telling Our News, “I would love to start a mentor program scholarship programs finding ways to give back to the island and the people that are here in the best way possible I’m going to get back with my team and find some of the things that we can do to where I can integrate and leave my footprints here on the island when I’m long gone and that all starts now.”

Ochocinco says this same ideology of love, passion and respect he has for the country is being instilled in his children, so that his footprints usher in a family legacy.
