The Nigeria Football Federation has confirmed the death of its technical director, Amodu Shuaibu, who passed on in the early hours of Saturday.
The four-time Super Eagles handler had complained of chest pain on Friday night before going to
sleep and he never wake up to see the next day.
"NFF Technical Director, Amodu Shuaibu has died at the age of 58."
"The four - time Coach of the Super Eagles complained of chest pains on Friday night and died in his sleep. RIP"
"Amodu Shuaibu's death comes three days after that of former Super Eagles Captain and Coach, Stephen Keshi."
Amodu took over from Bonfrere Jo after the Dutch man was sacked in the middle of the country's 2002 World Cup qualifying campaign, and he qualified Nigeria for the competition staged in South Korea and Japan, but was shown the exit door after leading the Super Eagles to a third place finish at the 2002 Africa Cup of Nations in Mali.
On April 10, 2008, he was name head coach of the country’s senior national team alongside Daniel Amokachi, Alloy Agu and Fatai Amoo with the task of qualifying the country for the 2010 Fifa World Cup in South Africa. Again, he was fired as after the Super Eagles settled for bronze at the 2010 Afcon in Angola.
