Nigerian Pastor Sparks Off Discussions Over Death Of A Zimbabwean Goalkeeper


A Nigerian Prophet David Uche has sparked a discourse online following his encounter with the late SuperSport United goalkeeper, George Chigova, who was recently confirmed dead. 

Chigova, the former Zimbabwe Warriors goalminder, passed away in his sleep at his Johannesburg residence on November 15, 2023.

Chigova had been sidelined from football since collapsing during a training session with SuperSport United in July.


According to reports, he woke up on Wednesday, briefly moved about his house, and returned to sleep.

When his wife attempted to wake him after an extended slumber, he remained unresponsive, and paramedics later declared him dead.

Prophet David Uche came into the spotlight due to his interaction with Chigova prior to his passing.

During a church service in Johannesburg, Uche allegedly informed Chigova that there was nothing wrong with his heart, suggesting that his diagnosis was merely an attempt to hinder his chances of securing a new football contract.


Chigova shared with Uche that his contract extension at SuperSport United was being delayed due to the discovery of a weak and irregular heart.

However, Uche dismissed the medical diagnosis, attributing it to external factors aimed at impeding Chigova’s career progression.

The encounter between the late goalkeeper and the Nigerian cleric has generated significant attention and debate, with many blaming the pastor for the Late SuperSport United goalkeeper death.
