Wife of Super Eagles Midfielder Kidnapped

Gunmen have kidnapped Maimunat Ogude, wife of Fegor Ogude, one of the Super Eagles players. In a chat with The Cable, he said his wife was kidnapped by unknown armed men in Warri, Delta state, since Monday night. Below are his words:

“I wasn’t home yesterday. My wife, Maimunat Ogude, went out with my kids. Barely two hours that I left the house, my younger brother Ogaga called me to say that some armed men came to the house to take my wife away.”

Ogude who also plays for Amkar Perm of Russia, with 16 International caps, said “I was told that they threw my kids out of the car and just took my wife in my car.

“Immediately I heard this, I had to go to the Police station to report this. And after making the report, I tried tracing them to see if by chance I could get the direction they went to. But I could not.

“All these happened between 7:30/8pm last night. Till this moment, I have not heard from them. I haven’t found my wife till this moment.

“But I got a call from the police that my car had been found in Ughelli. But no words yet from the kidnappers. I don’t know the state in which my wife is since last night.”
