This is the second death within the NFF Executive Committee in five months coming on the heels of the demise of Offor Okenwa.
Mr Okenwa was the Enugu State Football Association chairman and also the chairman of the Nigeria National League until his death.
Already condolences have been pouring in for the late NFF Executive Committee member.
A statement signed by Pius Henwan, the General Manager of Nigeria Professional Football League club, Plateau United, described this latest death not only as a loss to the NFF, but to the Nigeria football fraternity and Adamawa State in particular where the deceased held away as the chairman of the State Football Association.
The statement also commiserated with football stakeholders in Adamawa State over the loss and urged them to take his demise in good fate stressing that it is the necessary end of all mortals.
