According to Goal.com a token of 600,000 naira has been paid by Siasia's family to the captors of Samson Siasia's mother for her freedom. The release will certainly send easing waves to the coach and his team at large who are already set to take on Mali tomorrow in the AFCON U-23 championship in Senegal.
Goal has learnt that Madam Beauty Ogere Siasia, mother of Nigeria U23 coach Samson Siasia, has been released by her abductors 12 days after she was kidnapped.
The coach had cried out that he wasn’t a rich man and there was no way he could have raised the initial N150 million naira asked for, which was later cut to N50 million then N32 million before they finally agreed to take whatever the Siasia family could offer, an amount which is said to be around N600,000.
