The Nigeria U23 coach says not enough is being done to rescue his aged parent from the hands of her abductors
Samson Siasia has said that not enough is being done by authorities to rescue his 72-year-old mother from the hands of kidnappers.
Madam Beauty Ogere Siasia was abducted earlier in the week from her home in Odoni, Sagbama Local Government Area of Bayelsa state.
The coach is on national duty preparing the Nigeria U23 team for the African U23 Nations Cup in the Gambia at the moment.
He has accused the authorities of his home state of not showing enough concern to free his mother from her kidnappers, who have demanded 120 million Naira as ransom.
“I am very sad over here in the Gambia that despite being on national duty, it seems my country, and most especially my state Bayelsa, has neglected me since nobody besides the Directorate of State Services and my employers the Nigeria Football Federation are the only institutions that have waded in to secure the release of my kidnapped mother,” Siasia told Goal.
