I woke up this morning and as usual, I went on Twitter to know the trending topics. When I saw Stephen Keshi at the top that early in the morning, I suspected something was up. I later found out that the great coach had been pronounced dead. So I still stuck with Twitter for updates on the demise of the man that was linked, just four days ago, to South Africa’s Orlando Pirates football club.
All at CFC are saddened to hear of former Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi’s death. He worked with Mikel & Victor Moses. pic.twitter.com/ejohJrRSUP

I hope a proper autopsy is done to determine Stephen Keshi’s actual cause of death. Even if for sake of prophylaxis awareness.
