Katsina United have denied claims that player Chinedu Ozor regained consciousness after being pronounced dead following his collapse during a pre-season friendly. The club clarified the circumstances surrounding Ozor's death in a statement posted on its X handle. According to the club, reports claiming that Ozor later regained consciousness were false.
The confusion arose when Ozor's family requested further medical confirmation before his body was taken to the mortuary. However, the club stressed that this request should not be interpreted as evidence that Ozor survived. Katsina United appealed to the public to stop circulating unverified reports and appealed for the family's privacy during their grieving process.
