Amodu Shuaibu Is Dead! by Sheikwonder(m): 8:36am On Jun 11, 2016 |
by George Akpayen 11 June 2016, 08:33 Former Nigeria head coach, Shuaibu Amodu, has passed away at the age of 58. According to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amodu died on Saturday after "he could not wake up" from his sleep. The former BCC Lions coach, it was learned complained of chest pains, before he went to bed on Friday night. "That is correct," NFF secretary general, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, confirmed the passing away of Amodu. "He sleep and he could not wake up." Nigeria is still mourning the death of another former coach and legend, Stephen Keshi, who passed away on Wednesday in Benin City. Amodu and Keshi worked together as Nigeria's head coach and assistant coach respectively at the 2002 edition of the Africa Cup of Nations in Mali. In November 1994, Amodu first managed the Super Eagles in an international friendly with England in which his team lost 0-1. He took charge of the Super Eagles on four occasions in 1994 and 1995 as well as in 1997, 2001 and 2002 and then between 2008 and 2010. Amodu would be remembered for guiding BCC Lions to win the 1990 African Cup Winners Cup (now Caf Confederation Cup) and also for guiding the Nigerian men's national team to the 2002 Fifa World Cup finals after it looked impossible to qualify following a poor start to the qualification series in Africa. Until his death, Amodu was the technical director of the NFF. Source:http://www.supersport.com/football/nigeria/news/160611/Shuaibu_Amodu_is_dead Cc:Lalasticlala 1 Share

It's the question I've been asking too... If another sports administrator joins them, I fear I will begin to suspect foul play.... RIP to Amodu BTW... |
