May his soul RIP....The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), has sent its condolences to Super Eagles striker, Odion Ighalo, over the death of his father, Paul.President of the federation, Amaju Pinnick, spoke with the Watford player on Monday to encourage him.
“I know that no amount of words can console you at this moment. But I want you to know that the NFF and the Nigeria football family are mourning with you at this period. It is always tough to lose a parent. But I want you to be strong at this period and be there for younger members of the family. That is very important,” Pinnick said.
Odion Ighalo, speaking to theff.com, revealed the last conversation he had with his father before he passed on.
He said: “I’m short of words at this moment. I can’t believe my dad is no more. I spoke to him on Saturday and he prayed for me. I never knew that would be the last time we would have a father-and-son conversation. I’m going to miss him a great deal because he has been the greatest motivator for me in my career.”
