CAF Doping Officer Slumped, Died in MKO Abiola Stadium Stampede

Further Sad News has trailed the unfortunate loss of the Super Eagles of Nigeria to the Black stars of Ghana. Joseph Kabungo, a doctor working for the Confederation of African Football (CAF), was reported to have slumped and died at the MKO Abiola stadium in Abuja.

Kabungo was the doping officer for the Super Eagles’ match against Ghana in the second leg of the 2022 World Cup playoffs. He was said to have slumped in a stampede before the Match started and died shortly after the match on Tuesday.

Ace journalist, Osasu Obayiuwana, tweeted: “Sad news: I understand that an official for the @NGSuperEagles vs @GhanaBlackstars match (not a referee or assistant referee) died in #Abuja today.

“His name is Dr. Joseph Kabungo from Zambia. He was on duty as Doping officer. He collapsed suddenly and died. Cause of death not confirmed yet. His family, the Zambia FA and the government of Zambia have been duly informed.

“If the death of #Zambian doctor Dr. Joseph Kabungo at the #Abuja stadium was caused by being attacked by the #Nigerian fans who invaded the pitch, after the @NGSuperEagles lost the @FIFAWorldCup ticket to @GhanaBlackstars, @thenff would be in terrible trouble with @FIFAcom.”

No officials statement has been released by CAF or Nigeria Football Federation confirming the doctor’s death.

Today, Monday, 14th March, 2022, I formally tendered my resignation from the Akwa lbom State Executive Council as the Commissioner for Economic Development and Ibom Deep Seaport.

It was an honour and great privilege to serve our State under the leadership of Mr. Udom Emmanuel at such an important phase in our history. I am grateful to God almighty and His Excellency, for giving me the opportunity to serve.

I also thank the good people of our dear state for their support and encouragement which motivated me in the discharge of all the tasks and assignments given to me, especially with regards to the envisioned three gateways (Land, Air and Sea) for the rapid development of our dear state and creation of job opportunities for our teeming and very enterprising youths.

Throughout the duration of my service, I strived diligently to interprete His Excellency’s vision for our State as encapsulated in the Divine Mandate Agenda and Completion Agenda respectively.

As the scripture admonishes “to every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven…” Eccl. 3:It is my deep conviction that this is the best time to take a leave in other to focus on my aspiration for the 2023 Governorship election.

Once again, I thank His Excellency for the opportunity and wish our dear state the very best of growth and development.

A.O.

Mr. Akan Okon.
