Timi Ebikagboro Is Dead (Photos) by ChangeIsCostant: 9:54am On Sep 29, 2017
A prominent sports journalist and media officer for the Nigeria U-23 team, Timi Ebikagboro, is dead. The Delta-state based football pundit cum journalist, died early this morning in Warri, Delta State, according to multiple online reports. The ace sport journalist covered reports about the Nigerian football team at the 2016 Rio Olympics and series of other international events.

The cause of his death is yet to be ascertained as at the time of filing this report.

His last post on twitter was ; I don't want to be seen as a good Christian just because I carry d bible but would prefer for people to see Christ in me through my actions...

His friend and colleagues have taken to social media platforms to mourn the great loss. May his soul rest in peace.

Oh no!

I used to listen to him on that drtv radio station when I was younger...not Jay Fm, the other one. I can't remember it now but if you grew up in Warri, you'd know it. He had a good voice.

R.I.P Timi.

This is so sad. This guy did so much for sports in Delta State and Warri in particular. Impossible to have grown up in Warri in the 90's and not know this guy. His like made TV worth watching and made some sense out of the nonsense that was Delta TV. RIP
