Senator Shehu Sani has described the late football legend Diego Maradona as a “sportsman with conviction.”
Sani tweeted this on Wednesday following reports Maradona died after suffering a heart attack.
“Diego Armando Maradona, an unforgettable football maestro and a sportsman with conviction. Rest in peace and rise in glory,” Sani said.
Maradona’s career climaxed when he helped Argentina win the World Cup in 1986.
