Back to work - Super Eagles goalkeeper Nwabali returns to Chippa after death of his mother

Nwabali had a tough two months when he lost both of his parents and started living as an orphan.

While playing for Nigeria at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, the 28-year-old goalkeeper lost his father in the middle of November.

He had just finished grieving when his mother passed away at the beginning of the year, which he announced on his social media page.

Nwabali has revealed that he is ready for business as he returns to his club in South Africa for the remaining season.

This comes after Nwabali posted an old photo of him playing for Chippa United and a video of himself flying back to South Africa.

The Super Eagles goalkeeper shared a post on Instagram via X and added a caption, “Back to Business.”

Nwabali plans to resume training in the days ahead in anticipation of the South African Premier League's comeback. 

Chippa United will now face the Marumo Gallants on January 18 at Sisa Dukashe Stadium following the resumption of the season.
