A former member of the House of Representatives, who represented Ika federal constituency of Delta State, Dr Cairo Ojougboh, is dead.

Reliable sources said that the outspoken politician and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) died on Wednesday night while watching the AFCON 2023 semi-final match between Nigeria and South Africa.

“As soon as a penalty kick was awarded against Nigeria during the AFCON match with South Africa on Wednesday’s semi-final clash in Bouake, Ivory Coast, he slumped,” a source privy to the incident told LEADERSHIP on Thursday.[

I normally don't watch penalty kicks involving the SE !! i put out the TV
Also our SE is one of the most unpredictable teams always so a BP, diabetic or even seizure patient may need to stay away from its games !!

...this is what happens when you hedge huge bet, your hour house, your cars (big deal in Nigeria), your bank account.
Watch a game in peace. He is the kind of CE folks who exhibits hate towards players, and foment threats.

I’ve followed this guy’s career since he worked at NDDC, and he and his colleagues were harassing their then MD, Arunma Oteh. Though I never had warm feelings towards him, this is nonetheless sad. Comfort to his family

May his soul rest in peace. Amen.

I experienced something new while watching the game yesterday. My apple watch sent me an alert that my heart rate has gone up to 130 bpm without it, the watch, observing me doing any physical activity! This is what the match caused me. Thank God that one is younger. The only way to avoid this sort of issues is to deactivate support for the SE, but how?

Strangely, I was not worried. Thinking of it now, I ask myself why? I now believe that somewhat our history against South Africa may have played a role. Multiple times in this history, South Africand have dominated us with possession but end up with atrocious decisions in front of goal resulting in us coming out with a win. This game however was more difficult because the late pk award forced the need for a tie breaker thst could have gone either way. South Africa failing to convert early in the shootout meant tension was on their side not us.

Always on point with your analysis, Enugu II. Good posts upon good posts. Kudos!

Na my wife watch penalties.

Once, SA had the free kick in the 88 minutes (I remembered Algeria free kick goal in the Semi final). As SA missed the rebound, I checked out and went to bed.

Do we know how many people that could have lost their lives yesterday? This issue is real. I once lost a friend to Nigeria vs Ghana AFCON game during Berti Vogts era.

The Deputy Bursar of a Kwara uni also died yesterday, likewise an NYSC member

Please, walk away when you can o. Life has no photocopy or replacement.

I didn't watch the match.

I support 3SC, Corinthians and Manchester United. Over the years you learn to manage your cardio when you support those crazy teams. My approach is simple. I noticed that the tension typically gets intense around the 80th minute so to maintain my matchday thrills on important fixtures I only watch the first 30 minutes then go for a walk or a drink, depending on the time, leaving my phone in the car. Now, I have more fun watching the long highlights.

Another great way that helps with tension is to watch while following and commenting on CE match threads. CE match threads help me trivialize the match day experience.

I’m young but I don’t play with my health. As soon the pk was awarded to them, I closed my SlingTV app and continued with work. Then I checked on soccernet every 15 mins to see if the score has changed. If we win, I will watch the recorded replay in the evening and if we lose, I delete the recording and save myself the pain.
