A chieftain of the governing All Progressives Congress, APC, Cairo Ojougboh is dead.
The former House of Representatives lawmaker slumped on Wednesday while watching the AFCON semi-final match between the Super Eagles of Nigeria and the Bafana Bafana of South Africa.
Ojougboh was said to be suddenly slumped as a penalty was awarded against the Nigerian team in the course of the match at the tail end of the second half.
The deceased former federal lawmaker screamed and collapsed moment the South Africa’s side scored the penalty against the Super Eagles.
He was a former Rep Member, who represented the Ika federal constituency of Delta State.
