The management of Premier Soccer League side, Orlando Pirates football club has sent a condolence message to the family of former Nigeria coach, Shuaibu Amodu, who passed away on Saturday.
The 58-year old had complained of chest pain according to reports before retiring to his room on
Friday night, and he never woke up to see the following day- just three days after 2013 African Cup of Nations winning coach died.
In a statement on the club's website, Pirates management and the Bucs family sent their condolences to Amodu's family.
"Orlando Pirates management and the extended Bucs family would like to extend its heartfelt condolences to the family of Shaibu Amodu who has passed away," reads a statement.
"Though from Nigeria, Amodu is no stranger to South Africa having been an assistant coach and then a head coach of the Mighty Buccaneers in the late 90s."
"Since leaving the Club, Amodu went on to become coach of the Nigerian senior national team. At the time of his death, Amodu was the Technical Director of the Super Eagles."
"We convey our heartfelt and deepest sympathy to the Amodu family and pledge our profound moral support. We supplicate that God gives you fortitude at this moment of your extreme grief and pain."
"MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE."
The 58-year-old Amodu was in charge of the Premier Soccer League giants in the second season of the PSL in the 1997/98 campaign.
