Wilfred Agbonavbare died on the morning of January 28th, 2015 in Spain at the age of 48.

He was Nigeria's goalkeeper at the national level in the 1990 along with Peter Rufai. He succumbed to cancer after a long battle during which he was forgotten by his country. The last club he played for is a Spanish side. When they heard of his condition and learned that he could no longer pay his hospital bills in the US hospital where he was being treated, they provided 21,000 euros and had him brought to a hospital in Spain.

Was the NFA right to have ignored Wilfred Agbonavbare until he died?

May the soul of this hero rest in peace.

The NFA's failing is not securing adequate health insurance for these players.

They should do so henceforth.

Someone that died in 2015 and you are creating a thread as if it's a recent death.
These are some of the people that daily decrease the quality of threads & posts in nairaland with lies,fake stories,photoshopped pictures or videos and poor grammar on many front-page threads,right from the title of the thread itself!
