Gangling Super Eagles’ central defender and captain of Warri Wolves, Emmanuel Azubuike, was all tears when he got news of the demise of his friend and team mate, Solomon Ogbu, on Monday.
Solomon was reported to have died in a bus accident on Sunday.
Super Eagles’ Coordinator, Emmanuel Attah, informed that Azubuike took late Ogbu like a brother who will surely be missed, as he was his confidant.
He further described the deceased as a funny chap, easy going and fun to be with.
Similarly, Chigozie Agbim, former Warri Wolves’ player, expressed shock over the sudden death of his one time team mate, just as he prayed for the repose of his soul.
Meanwhile, officials and players of the Super Eagles have consoled Azubuike and enjoined him to take it as an act of God.
