Coach of Nigeria’s national U23 football team, Samson Siasia’s mother Madam Ogere has been kidnapped by unknown men, just 24 hours after the gaffer suffered a terrific trip to Gambia.
The abductors stormed her residence in Odoni village, Saghama Local Government Area of Bayelsa State on Monday and forced her out of the apartment against the passionate plea of her husband.
It was gathered that the kidnappers had laid siege to the house before striking when most residents of the town were asleep. And she was whisked away on a motorbike to an unknown destination.
