Christian Chukwu, former coach of the Super Eagles and one
of Nigeria’s greatest footballers ever, will travel to the UK for further

The $50,000 cheque was presented to Chukwu on Wednesday morning in Enugu by
Philip Akinola, the COO of Zenon Petroleum and Gas Ltd, one of Otedola’s
companies.
Also present were Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the governor of Enugu state, Amaju Pinnick,
the chairman of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) and Onochie Anibeze, the
renowned sports journalist.
“The governor just called to thank me immensely and I spoke with Christian
Chukwu too. He will be flown abroad next week. I told him he will be fine and I
will make sure he is provided with the best health services,” Otedola.
Chukwu, with support from the Enugu state government, has already done an
initial surgery in Nigeria and has been recuperating.
