Dunia, a patron of the Professional Footballers Association of Nigeria (PFAN), according to Harrison Jalla, called the Turkish Hospital management to expect coach Kadiri Ikhana on Monday, July 21 2025.
“As we speak, after a series of tests, coach Ikhana was admitted at 6pm yesterday (Monday) for better and further medical attention,” Jalla said.
He added; “This is a clarion call to all Nigerian sports authorities, both at the federal and state levels, that they must wake up to their responsibilities and duty of care to Nigerian sports men and women, current and retired. No senior government official, either at the state or federal level, would have used the Irrua Specialist Hospital as a final medical destination concerning any ailment.”
He stressed that having secured private sponsorship for coach Ikhana’s health, the PFAN has initiated a move to ensure the National Sports Commission, the Nigeria Football Federation, and the Edo State Government support coach Ikhana’s welfare and post-medical rehabilitation.
