NFF Mourns Supersand Eagles Coach Audu Adamu Ejo

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) announced the demise of Head Coach of the Beach Soccer National Team (Supersand Eagles), Audu Adamu Ejo, who died on Saturday.

Ejo, who led the Supersand Eagles to several FIFA World Cup and Beach Soccer AFCON campaigns, lost the battle against diabetes on Saturday evening, the federation said.

“It is very painful for us at the NFF. Coach Adamu was a very dedicated head of the technical crew of our Beach Soccer Team,” said NFF General Secretary Mohammed Sanusi.“He won several laurels with the team and was a highly disciplined and dedicated individual.”

“The NFF never had any serious issues with him all through the years he spent with the Supersand Eagles. He did his job quietly and never courted undue limelight. He was very hard working, energetic and committed to beach soccer, and was simple, humble and humane. Nigerian Football will miss him.”

“We love him but God loves him more. We pray that God grants him eternal rest and also grant the family and loved ones he has left behind eternal rest.”

Rest In Peace, Audu
