After watching the Nation’s Cup qualifier between Nigeria and the Bafana Bafana of South Africa where the Super Eagles lost 2-0 to the South African side, a retired soldier of the Nigerian Army, identified as Joseph Oloruntoju, slumped and died on Saturday.

According to a report by Punch Metro, Oloruntoju, who was said to have retired from the army as a sergeant, reportedly left his residence at Ajipowo area of Akure and went to the Owena Army Barracks to watch the match along with his friends.

The deceased who is an ardent lover of Nigerian football, and slumped shortly after the Super Eagles conceded the second goal, was reportedly rushed to an undisclosed private hospital where he was confirmed dead 

While speaking to a correspondent, the Public Relations Officer of the 32 Artillery Brigade of the Nigeria Army in Akure, Captain Ojo Adelegan, who confirmed the incident, said the man slumped in the barracks, but was not while watching football in the barracks.

He said, “He is a retired sergeant. He  has a shop at our mammy market (in the barracks).

“It was discovered that his blood pressure was overshot. It was while our doctors were saving his life that he gave up the ghost. “

Animal lovers streaked unclad through London Zoo on a sponsored run to help save tigers from extinction.

Nneka Ogwumike is a Nigerian American basketball player who plays forward for the Los Angeles Sparks. The young woman caused a stir recently when she posed n*de for ESPN. Ogwumike will be one of 23 athletes to grace ESPN The Magazine’s annual Body Issue and one of its nine cover stars. “It’s always been something that I wanted to do,”  Ogwumike said.  “I think it’s mostly because of the elite collection of athletes that they pick. It attributes to your success individually because they don’t just pick anybody.” But this wasn’t the first time that ESPN called the Texas native.
