Coach Steve Onishola, the Technical Director of Kwara Falcons Basketball Club of Ilorin, is dead.
Onishola died barely 24 hours after his younger sister, Folake Aremu, a Nollywood actress, popularly called Orisabunmi, died at 60.
The State Chairman of the association, Dr. Joseph Adeyemo, confirmed the death in Ilorin on Thursday.
The late basketball coach was said to have passed on at 71 on Thursday in Illorin, following a brief illness.
He was part of the Falcons’ team that secured promotion for the club to the elite division in 2013.
He was also a member of the Silver-winning team at the 2018 edition of the Kwese Premier League.
May their souls rest in peace
