On 1 January 2025, Nwabali revealed that his mother had passed away on X (formerly known as Twitter).
“Rip mom, worst year of my life already. A very very crazy world indeed,” the bulky keeper wrote.
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) also confirmed the sad demise of Nwabali’s mother in a post on social media.
“Our heartfelt condolences to Stanley Nwabali on the loss of his mother,” a statement read.
“Stay strong, Stanley. sending you strength and support during this difficult time. You are not alone; we are all with you.”
