Just days after the country lost a legend in its football family another tragedy struck as the Technical director of the Nigeria football Amodu Shuaibu died also in Benin, Edo State.
To worsen the situation, news have emerged that late former BCC Lions of Gboko coach
was owed 25 million Naira of salaries, signing fees and house rent by both the Nigeria and Edo state governmnet respectively.
This was evident as it was contained in the last letter written by the late coach and addressed to the governor of Edo State Adams Oshiomole which was dated October 2015.
According to the late Amodu Shuaibu's cousin, Nkuri Ategbua, the late coach died out of frustration as he tried to persuade the governor to pay him before he finally resigned as the state's consultant/technical adviser of football development programme.
He said the late coach lived in hardship with family in Benin as the landlord pitied him by not giving him quit notice over a two-year rent owed.
