Finidi's younger brother, Iginaware George was killed during an FA Cup match at the Lekan Salami Stadium, Adamasingba in Ibadan in 1995.


Stationery Stores were playing against Rangers in Ibadan. Iginaware played for Rangers. Then there was crowd trouble and violence erupted. Some people claimed that Shooting Stars supporters, who were rivals with Stationery Stores, came to the stadium to fight stores supporters. Others claimed that the violence was started by Stores supporters.

Anyway, there was pandemonium and everybody ran for cover. Gunshots rang out amid the pandemonium and Iginaware lay on the ground bleeding. Some people say that the shots were fired by fans, while others say they were fired by the bodyguards of the military governor who was also at the stadium.

The governor, Colonel Chinyere Ike Nwosu, rushed Iginaware George to the hospital and prayed the rosary with him along the way, but Iginaware George died.

I had a friend whose father was a football star in the 1950s, '60s and '70s. His father also coached the Super Eagles in the 1980s and the Super Falcons in the 1990s.

You would think that my friend would love football but it was quite the opposite.

My friend was a tennis star and he represented Nigeria in the 1990s. He hated football. He was always ranting that football fans were violent thugs and that the government paid too much attention to football.

Anyway, Nigeria defeated Greece at the 1994 World Cup and then I saw my friend the next day. He was ranting that the players had gone to disgrace Nigeria. "It was shown all over the world!"

I was confused because we played well and beat Greece. Then someone else told me what he was ranting about. Finidi George's goal celebration!

"That thing was shown on CNN! They'll think that's how Nigerians are" he complained. I couldn't stop laughing.


Watch Finidi's goal and celebration.

What ain't true?
The killed. The guy at ibadam..
I think it was Sharks vs Stationery Stores. Or Shooting Stars..
There was the normal protest after the match because of the performance of the home team. Players smuggled into the team bus. Shots fired. Then a mopol guy sympathetic to home team, pointed his gun at the bus and fired. The guy didn't even notice that he has been hit until blood started gushing out and those sitting behind raised alarm..
Brought down from the bus and ofcourse the poor health system failed the young man..
The then military governor was present and actually wept on the scene over the situation.. Hot news in the newspapers those days.. I think the guy has already started playing for the flying eagles as at the time he was killed..

Finidi continued to represent for Nigeria after that tho..
Cool headed, well read man , that Finidi Gorge..
