The management of Bayelsa Queens has condoled with the Okara’s family over the death of their coach, Domo Okara who passed on Saturday.
Bayelsa Queens in a condolence message signed by chairman of the club, Pastor Robin Apreala, on behalf of the board, coaches and players expressed shock and great sadness at the sudden passing of Bayelsa Queens head coach, Domo Okara.
Pastor Apreala notes that Domo Okara’s unexpected passing leaves a significant void in the Nigerian women’s football community, where his influence extended far beyond the pitch.
According to him, the sad development of the demise of Okara has left a huge void in the football fraternity, not just in Bayelsa State, but the nation at large given his invaluable contributions to the country.
He described the incident as “real tragedy” and urged the bereaved family to be strong as no one could question God, stating that Domo was one of the pillars of women football coaching in the country.
Bayelsa Queens equally appreciated Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, the Chairperson and members of the Nigeria Women Football Club Owners Association, Rivers State Commissioner for Sports, Bar Christopher Green, the Nigeria Women Premier league NWFL and other clubs for the show of solidarity in this trying time for Bayelsa Queens and the Okara family.
“We share in the sorrow and pains of the Okara family at this period and we pray that God will grant the family the courage to bear the loss as we pray for the repose of the soul of our departed coach”.
“The late Domo Okara was not just a hero in Bayelsa State, he served Nigeria with aplomb and distinction and will surely be missed”.
”It is our prayer as a club that God continues to comfort the entire family and give them the fortitude to bear the grievous loss,” he said.
