Reacting to the reports of his passing, the NPFL chairman, Hon Gbenga Elegbeleye said the country has lost an icon of youth and club coaching.
“Sebastien Brodericks-Imasuen was a Coach who made youth football popular in Nigeria and at some point in his career, he was one of those that heightened interest in the Professional Football League with a running rivalry with some other top club coaches like Willy Bazuaye, James Peters, Charles Bassey to mention a few.
“By his death, our country has lost an icon in the coaching echelon”, declared the NPFL chairman.
Elegbeleye directed that as a mark of honour to the departed coach, players and officials of the NPFL would wear black armbands while a minute’s silence would be observed before kickoff on MatchDay 17 of the season this weekend.
