Sadly true, my friends in the College of Medicine, UNILAG confirmed he died of cardiac arrest this evening, so painful!!!

@Poster,
Schooling in GH is almost like in Nigeria only that's it's a little more expensive, and there is no ASUU strike . The standard of education depends on the institution though . Things are generally quite expensive over here, I'll tell you that I live on an average of 500GH cedis a month, equivalent to around 55 thousand Naira for food and other miscellaneous expenses . The fees vary from school to school too. Mine is the most expensive in the country and the standard is second to none too, lol. You might like to join me over here, man. I'll be waiting, lol

@Kevin E,
you are very right about the attitude of Ghanaians to Nigerians. They act as if we have some beef or quarrel. I'm a Nigerian studying in GH too, Ashesi University to be precise, but I'v still got lots of time for Champs, Citizen Kofi, Tantra et al, Life in GH is fun though, but thats simply because I've gt lots of Daddy cash, lol

During today's Sudanese Premier League match-up between El-Merriekh and Al-Amal, Nigerian-born forward Endurance Idahor was rushed to hospital after a challenge from a fellow player left him on his back, unable to breathe.

Despite the teams' best efforts to see that the striker was given treatment as quickly as possible, the 23-year-old is said to have passed away inside the ambulance on the way to the hospital.

Players, coaching staff and the 30,000 supporters stood in disbelief as the referee whistled the end of the match.

Sources close to El-Merreikh Club revealed to Goal.com that the player will undergo an autopsy to determine the cause of death. Meanwhile, early medical reports state that a heart attack is the most likely cause of death.

The club released a brief announcement describing the player as "An example of a professional and committed individual and a symbol of loyalty" and added, "We will assure that justice takes place".

Endurance Idahor joined El-Merreikh from Nigerian outfits Dolphin in 2006, loaned to Al-Nasser of UAE for one season and since his return he became a key figure in the first team squad scoring over 67 goals, leading the club to their first CAF confederation cup final since 1989.

It remains to be seen whether the rest of week 3 matches taking place on Sunday will be postponed or not.
