Police Inspector Dies While Watching Arsenal Vs Real Madrid Match In Calabar

Posted on April 9, 2025 By Admin No Comments on Police Inspector Dies While Watching Arsenal Vs Real Madrid Match In Calabar

An officer of the Nigerian Police Force, identified as Stephen Enang, tragically died on Tuesday night while watching the UEFA Champions League match between Arsenal and Real Madrid at a football viewing centre in Calabar.

Enang, an Inspector and devoted Arsenal supporter, was attached to the Akim Police Division along IBB Way in Calabar until his passing.

He was said to be a regular caller at the football viewing centre located at Abang-Asang Street, Calabar Municipality, Cross River State, where the tragedy struck.

He was also said not to have displayed any sign of illness before the game, and even joined in the excitement when the first, second, and third goals of Arsenal were scored.

According to his friend, who pleaded anonymity, the late inspector was discovered unconscious after the final whistle.

“Before the match, he was hale and hearty, there was no issue whatsoever, that we know of, because he is a very quiet and soft-spoken guy, who loves football and is a die-hard Arsenal fan. He is an Inspector of Police also with the Akim Police Division. We were all watching the game, his team scored the first goal, and he was so excited, same with the second and third goals.

“He jumped up all in jubilation to each of these goals; we didn’t know that as he sat back in his chair waiting for the final whistle, Stephen was gone. We only discovered that he was not moving after the game, when everyone was leaving the viewing center, and he didn’t stand up like others.

”That was when we discovered he was no longer conscious, he was rushed to the Police hospital at Akim, where the health professionals did everything they could to revive him, but all their efforts proved abortive, as he was confirmed dead.”

Efforts to get the reaction of the state Police command were not successful as the spokesperson, Irene Ugbo, responded with a “line busy” prompt when www.calitown.com reached her shortly before press time.

Additional report from NAN.
