NFF appeals to Nigeria Police on late  Uzama

The Nigeria Football Federation has called on the Nigeria Police to
intensify efforts to fish out the killers of former Nigeria youth
international Douglas Uzama, who was killed in Benin City on Thursday, 29th
December 2016.
The Gombe United FC player was said to have been murdered in the capital of Edo State where he had gone to celebrate the yuletide with his family.
NFF General Secretary, Dr. Mohammed Sanusi said at the weekend that the
Federation was in deep grief over the manner of death of the former Golden
Eaglet and Flying Eagle.
“Only two months ago, we had a similar case of a player of Shooting Stars
FC of Ibadan (Izu Joseph) who was murdered in cold blood in Rivers State.
“We are really worried about this trend and we use this opportunity to call
on the Police to hunt down and arrest the killers of Uzama, as well as
intensify efforts in their search for the killers of Izu Joseph.”
