A cousin to the late technical director of the Nigeria Football Federation and former Super Eagles coach, Shuaibu Amodu, has revealed what really led to the death of the celebrated former coach.
The cousin named Akuri Afegbua, said Amodu died after complaining of pain in the left side of his chest.
He further stated that the Edo born sportsman was already frustrated from the alleged non-payment of his financial entitlements by the NFF and the Edo State Government.
Afegbua said that Shuaibu had also laid complaints on how his financial status had made it difficult for him to attend to his needs and that of his immediate family.
According to him, Amodu went down to Benin to demand the payment of his outstanding entitlements before he died.
He said with tears in his eyes, “I think he died of frustration, his financial status. He was not paid. He was complaining of not being paid and had no money to maintain himself and his immediate family.
“I think the purpose of him being in Benin was to put in a bill for his payment, both NFF and the state government.”
Afegbua made it known that the late coach had suffered from high blood pressure in the past.
“We were together yesterday. In the afternoon, he called to say that he was feeling some pain in the left side of his chest and he called in a doctor.
“The doctor test him; he had 140 over 100 as his blood pressure. The doctor said that it was not bad, he could continue with his fasting,” he explained.
He also added that the ex-Eagles coach did not show any signs of ill health on Friday when he assisted one of his uncles to secure a bail at a police station.
He was also said to have led in the prayer to break the fast on Friday, before he was suddenly found dead at about 4am on Saturday.
“Apart from that he complained of pain in his chest, he was perfectly okay. We came back this morning to wake up to do the normal fasting but met him dead, “he lamented.
