BREAKING: Former super eagles coach Christian Chukwu dies at 74
Christian Chukwu, former coach of Nigeria’s national football team, the Super Eagles, has died at the age of 74.
His passing was confirmed earlier today, though specific details about the cause of death are yet to be disclosed.
In 2021, Chukwu was the subject of widespread false death reports, which he personally debunked during his 70th birthday celebration on January 4 of that year.
“I am terribly embarrassed with this news that I am dead. Several people have been calling me from across the world since the news broke.
I am still investigating the source of the story,” he had said at the time.
Fondly known as “Chairman,” Chukwu was a towering figure in Nigerian football, earning respect and admiration both as a player and a coach. His contributions to the sport have left a lasting legacy.
More information will be shared as it becomes available.
