๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ Farewell to a Legend: Peter โ€œDodo Mayanaโ€ Rufai

Nigeria has lost one of its most iconic football heroes. Peter Rufai, the ever-reliable, ever-charismatic goalkeeper who defended the nation's dreams, has passed away at the age of 61.

โšฝ His Legacy in Glorious Numbers

๐Ÿงค 65 international caps for the Super Eagles

๐Ÿ† 1994 AFCON Champion

๐ŸŒ Played in Spain, Portugal, Belgium, and the Netherlands

๐Ÿฅ… Scored a memorable penalty in Nigeriaโ€™s 6โ€“0 win over Ethiopia in 1993

โœˆ๏ธ Represented Nigeria at two FIFA World Cups (1994 & 1998)

๐Ÿ‘‘ A Royal and a Role Model

Son of a traditional ruler in Idimu, Rufai was royalty on and off the pitch. He declined kingship to focus on mentorship and football. Through his Staruf Academy, he gave countless young talents the tools to dream bigger.

Even in his final days, he stood for integrity, raising awareness on cybersecurity issues involving his identity.

Peter Rufai wasnโ€™t just a player. He was a pillar of character, resilience, and leadershipโ€”on the field and in life.

๐Ÿ’š Forever in our hearts, Dodo Mayana. Your hands were safe, your spirit unstoppable.

๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ Rest in Peace, Peter Rufai
We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Super Eagles goalkeeper Peter Rufai, who died in the early hours of today at the age of 61 after a prolonged illness.

A true legend of Nigerian football, his contributions between the posts will never be forgotten. ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌโšฝ

Our thoughts and heartfelt prayers are with his family, loved ones, and the entire football community. ๐Ÿ™

A Black Thursday for Nigerian and African football. ๐Ÿ’”

๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ In Loving Memory: Diogo Jota and Andrรฉ Silva

Gone Too Soon, Never Forgotten.

It is with deep sadness that we mourn the untimely passing of Diogo Jota, a brilliant forward for Liverpool FC and the Portuguese national team, along with his brother Andrรฉ Silva, a dedicated professional footballer with FC Penafiel, after a tragic car accident in Zamora, Spain.

This heartbreaking loss sends shockwaves through the global football family.

โšฝ Diogo was more than a world-class talentโ€”he was a fighter, a leader, and an inspiration to millions.

โšฝ Andrรฉ, forging his own professional path in Liga Portugal 2, was equally admired for his determination and sportsmanship.

๐Ÿ’” As we join fans, teammates, and loved ones in grief, we honor their lives, celebrate their achievements, and remember the joy they brought to the pitch.

๐Ÿ“Œ May their legacy of passion, purpose, and perseverance live on.

Rest in peace, Champions.

Your boots may be still, but your spirit will forever echo in stadiums around the world.
