Otumba Azeez, who passed away at the age of 63 following a brief illness on Friday, 25 April 2025, was remembered as a leading figure in Nigerian football. Alhaji Mouktar Mohammed articulated the grief felt within the football community, particularly as it comes shortly after the loss of former FIFA referee Bosede Momoh.

“This news is a tremendous shock to all of us in the FCT,” said Alhaji Mouktar. “The passing of a respected individual like Otumba Azeez is not just a loss for football; it is a significant loss for sports as a whole. We mourn with his family, friends, and the broader football community.”
