Gombe United defender Uzama Douglas was shot dead in Benin City by armed men believed to be cultists on Thursday.
The murder of Uzama is the second tragedy to hit the domestic football scene in the last three months after Shooting Stars central defender Izu Joseph was shot dead.
A close friend of the former Golden Eaglets and Flying Eagles invitee said that the left back was shot in Benin City and declared dead on arrival in hospital.
