Pillars vs Ikorodu Utd match commissioner dies in hotel room



The match commissioner for Sunday’s Nigeria league match between Kano Pillars and Ikorodu United, Tanko Nuhu, is dead.

Nuhu from Nasarawa State, who lives in Abuja, with his family, was found dead in his hotel room, on Monday.

Pillars spokesman, Idris Malikawa, confirmed the match official’s death to newsmen.

"He was found dead in his hotel room this morning (Monday) when all efforts for him to open his room door proved abortive,” said Malikawa.

 “It is really tragic because he was hail and hearty on Sunday night.”

Malikawa further disclosed that Dr Sani Zakari of the Murtala Muhammad Hospital in Kano confirmed the death as natural but said drugs against hypertension were found in his room.

The host team, Pillars beat Ikorodu United 2-1 in a Nigeria league Week 15 clash on Sunday.
