Enyimba International
FC has reacted to the

time with the club was
commendable, adding

both on and off the
pitch.
“Words cannot convey
either the depth of our
pain or the intensity of
our anguish over the
death of Udoji.

this hour of sadness,
however, is to pray to
God to strengthen the
family he left behind,
the teammates he so
passionately inspired
and his friends and
fans.
“Udoji joined our club in
2009 and captained the
club for five seasons

the pitch but warm
and gentle friend off it.

he won two league
titles and two
Federation Cups.

team to reach the
semi-finals of the

will remain in our
hearts forever,’’
