Veteran Nigerian sports journalist and retired Director of Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), Akinloye Oyebanji, has died at the age of 62.

His family confirmed that Oyebanji passed on at the National Hospital, Abuja, on Saturday July 27th morning after a protracted battle with heart failure.

Bukoye Oyebanji and Steve Olarinoye, family member and closed friend, disclosed that Oyebanji had been ill for almost four months now and the family had spent millions of naira to save his life without any improvement. They said some time ago, he had the misfortune of losing his kidneys, and they were replaced successfully through a transplant in India.

Late Oyebanji served the NTA for 35 years in different capacities, including being a sports broadcaster, and later as General Manager (Sports). He retired as Managing Director of NTA Properties at the authority’s headquarters in Abuja. Oyebanji hailed from Kwara State and he’s survived by four children and a wife.

  7. Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and everything. But think about if you added some great photos or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and clips, this site could certainly be one of the most beneficial in its field. Very good blog!
