Segun Odegbami, a former Super Eagle captain and a close friend to late Nigeria football Legend, Rashidi Yekini on Friday said that there was no reason why the late footballer should have died.

“The Rashidi I saw six weeks ago, the Rashidi that I have been communicating with three weeks ago was very sane,” Mr Odegbami said.

The former captain said Yekini died a sacrificial death “for all that have been happening in the Nigeria sport.”
