High Chief Osondu Nwoye was one of the richest Igbo businessman based in Ivory Coast before the Super Eagles Vs South Africa’s match , but what the late Anambra-born billionaire from Amanuke in Awka North Local Government Area in Anambra State did not see coming Is watching his darling Super Eagles play on Wednesday in Ivory Coast, where he lives and runs his flourishing business, going to ultimately cost him his life?
By this time yesterday, High Chief Osondu was still alive, hale, and hearty.
He travelled to Bourke, the city that hosted the Super Eagles match yesterday, to watch his darling Super Eagles play.

He loves football and is patriotic for his home country.
According to eyewitnesses, the High Chief was on top of the moon, shouting on top of voice, when Victor Osimen scored that second goal, which was later cancelled by VAR.
May be the shock of seeing the goal cancelled and penalty awarded to South Africa was too much to bear for his fragile heart, which failed immediately, which resulted in the High Chief collapsing inside the stadium.
All the frenetic efforts to save his life yielded no results.
May his gentle soul RIP. I pray the @NGSuperEagles win the finals in his memory as a fan!
