Former Nigerian U-17 coach, Willy Bazuaye is dead. The ex Nigerian international who had been battling with stroke for years breathed his last few days after he was rushed to the intensive care unit of the University of Benin Teaching Hospital, Edo State.

Asides playing for the national team, he was also an assistant coach to the U-23 National Team in 1996. He was aged 80.

May his soul find repose. Amen.
