Siasia calls for help over kidnapped mum

Ex-international, Samson Siasia is calling on the Nigerian government to help him rescue his abducted mother from the den of kidnappers.

Siasia’s mother, Mrs. Ogere Siasia, 76, and two others were taken into captivity about ten weeks ago and every efforts to rescue them has been unfruitful.

Siasia has now revealed that the Nigerian Police Force says the police are no closer to finding the victims.

Former Super Eagles handler said “The police said it’s been difficult to track these kidnappers, but my great concern is that my mother is very sick,”

“For someone who is unwell to be held against her will is not only callous but heartbreaking and sad.

“So I can only keep appealing to these guys to please let my mother go. I would like for the government or whoever is capable to help me bring my mother back.”

“What more can I do but plead for assistance from the government, police and my country that I served as a player and coach,” he said.

“My mother is seriously sick and this bothers me a lot. I don’t know where or who to turn to at this point.
