Doctor Canice Ebirim Dies While Watching Nigeria VS Argentina Match by Kimcutie(op): 6:56pm On Jun 27, 2018
A Nigerian doctor has reportedly lost his life while watching the Super Eagles of Nigeria lose to Argentina in their final group d fixture of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.

Dr. Canice Ebirim, a consultant at the Federal Teaching Hospital Abakaliki (FETHA), died during the Super Eagles and Argentina match on Tuesday.

While confirming the news, the Chief Medical Director (CMD), of the hospital, Emeka Ogah, said Ebirim died within the period of the match.

According to him, a friend of the deceased revealed that he started behaving funny within that period.

“Ebirim’s friend said that the deceased started moving suspiciously and solicited for assistance which made him intervene and took him (Ebirim) to the hospital.

Efforts made to revive him at our hospital proved abortive as he died but we would liaise with his family to conduct an autopsy.

We are surprised at his death because he consulted at the hospital on Tuesdays. We have to wait till autopsy is conducted to draw further conclusions,” he told NAN.

The Super Eagles crashed out of the 2018 FIFA World Cup after yesterday’s 1-2 loss to Argentina. The game saw Marcos Rojo score a late goal which broke the heart of many Nigerian fans.

Pls if you are hypertensive don't watch your team play. If you don't have the heart stay away to avoid this kind of stories. My doctor friend said many casualties were brought to the hospital where he is working.
Pls Nigeria is not worth dying for. Rip to him.

If a doctor could not manage the damage the loss caused, I wonder the fate of hypertensive fans.


I think those hypertensive should not be die-hard fans if they want to avoid cardiac arrest.


When you understand your limit, then you respect that boundary ----That's the secret of living long.

this Nigeria match made me realize that people can actually die for football o. the pain in my heart last night was unexplainable. I could practically point the exact location where the pain was and I could describe the size.

RIP to the dead
