Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali is going through a tough time as he mourns the death of his father. He shared the sad news with his fans on Instagram last Friday, posting a heartfelt tribute.
In a short message, Nwabali wrote, “R.I.P Dad,” accompanied by a tearful emoji. However, he chose not to share further details about his father’s passing.
Since the announcement, support has poured in from fans, teammates, and friends, who have sent messages of condolence and encouragement. Many have used social media to express their sympathy and offer prayers for Nwabali and his family.
