Beauty Ogere, the 76-year-old mother of former Super Eagles coach, Samson Siasia has been released after several months in captivity. Recall that Beauty Ogere and two others had been held captive since they were seized in Bayelsa, southern Nigeria ten weeks ago. And Siasia just last week said the police were no closer to finding her.

“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.”Siasia also recently filed an appeal against a life ban for match-fixing, imposed by world football’s governing body Fifa,” Siasia had told BBC Sport.

It’s the second time in four years that Mrs Siasia has been kidnapped after she was held by gunmen for 12 days, before her release back in November 2015.
