Today marked 30 years of the younger brother to former Nigeria national team player George Finidi, whose life was cut short in Ibadan in a match between Stationery Stores and Rangers at Lekan Salami Stadium. How the death of a reliable, brilliant midfielder happened. It was a dastardly fallout of a challenge Cup now known as the FA Cup quarter-final game between the Enugu Rangers FC (Flying Antelopes) and the vociferous Stationery Stores FC (Adebajo Babes of Lagos).

Igeniwari died of a gunshot wound on September 9, 1995. That was the year his elder brother Finidi won the UEFA Champions League with Ajax.

The late Igeniwari George could not be saved after he was rushed to the University Teaching Hospital Ibadan, where it was alleged that the hospital had a water shortage to carry out a surgical operation.

Igeniwari George keep resting 🇳🇬🕊️❤️ forever to remember you in the history of football.
