May his soul Rest in Peace.

What was he looking for in iraq?? May his sould rest in peace.. he's a young guy.. awwwwwwww.

He must be looking for Greener pasture in Iraq. May His Soul rest in Peace

My God this is not something i like to hear. A guy of 25 years? May his soul rest in perfect peace and may God almighty give his family the ability to bear the huge lost.

It's a pitty.
but what suprises me most is that i swa this guy in action in the match against enyimba dolphin this year but how sad now i heard his dead . The ranger team manager said that he will get to the root of this that despite the fact that he doesn't play in rangers again that they still like him cos he is very loyal, humble and obident.
may his soul rest in perfect peace.

wat a pity. its so saddening losing such a promising young man.
I pray the good lord, 2 give the family the fortitude 2 bear the irreparable loss. Amen

Just when I was starting to get interested in our local football. May his soul rest in peace

but am still wandering, what did the young man went to iraq for, Nigeria is better than iraq, he should still remain in Nigeria and still enjoy the small money he gets from the Globacom premier league. That is what kills most of our nigerian players always desperate to play abroad yet they don't get anything from there, look at Vincent Eyeanma wasting his time in isreal, after signing his contrac with them he wasnt to cancel it now, but it is not possible, he still have to stay there for more three years. I think God used this as an example for them, but i think the club that sam okoye went to trial for has a hand in his death
Think of it u guys
