Here are live photos from the funeral service for late Super Eagles Chief Coach, Stephen Keshi, which is currently holding at St. Paul's Catholic Church, 30 Airport Road, Benin City. The former international and Africa Cup of Nations winning player and coach, 54, suddenly died from cardiac arrest in the early hours of Wednesday, June 8 in Benin City.

His remains will be moved to the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, where a novelty match organized by his former teammates led by former Super Eagles captain and coach Austin Eguavoen will be staged in his honour.

Afterwards, his corpse will depart for Asaba, the Delta State capital, where former Delta State Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan will recieve him at the stadium named after him on Nnebisi Road.

Thereafter, his body will leave for Illah, his country home, where the Obi of Illah, His Royal Highness Obi Gbemudu with his high chiefs will recieve him.

Moments later, a requiem mass will hold at St John Catholic Church before his remains will be moved to his residence for an hour-long lying-in-state for an hour and followed by an internment at the same venue.

I SMH

the labour of our hero they say is not in vain

but here the reverse is the case


The final burial rites for late Super Eagles Captain and Coach, Stephen Okechukwu Keshi, will start in Benin City, Edo State this morning without the involvement of the Federal Government which is staying out after citing lack of funds. Late Keshi Late Keshi The Federal Government has now said it will play its own part for the late soccer icon after the Rio 2016 Olympic Games because of a combination of factors. “We don’t want a haphazard burial for such a great patriot, that is why the Minister of Sports, Solomon Dalung, has said the FG will play its own part after the Olympics”, declared a top source. “We will unveil details after the Games”, the source added.


cant they negotiate with the family and do it once and for all?

they say they will do their after the Olympics
I think the sports minister failed here again plus all the NFF people
