Kano
Pillars’ Captain Gambo Mohammed has recovered from the ear injury he sustained
on Sunday during his side’s week 12 Nigeria Professional Football League clash
against Rivers United at the Yakubu Gowon Stadium, Port-Harcourt.
Gambo was
taken to the Braithwaite Memorial Specialist Hospital (BMH), Port Harcourt
after suffering a rupture of the tympanic membrane.
The striker clashed
mid-air with United’s Ghanaian striker Wilson Andoh in the eighth minute of the
contest which his side lost 0-1.
He was
discharged from BMH on Tuesday morning and travelled to Kano in company of the
team’s medical personnel, Ali Adamu and team manager, Yaro.
In a
telephone chat with NationSport, Gambo was full of praise to God, stressing
that he had fully recovered and was recuperating at his home in Kano.
“I am at
home now and I am feeling fine. Everything is okay. I thank Allah for
everything. I also thank everybody who contributed one way or the other to my
recovery,” Gambo told NationSport.
The club’s
media officer Idris Malikawa said Gambo visited consultants at the Murtala
Muhammed Specialist Hospital, Kano on Wednesday morning for a medical check-up.
He also
commended the management of Rivers United for the love and care shown to Gambo
in Port-Harcourt.
“Gambo will
be at the hospital tomorrow morning to see doctors in Kano for further
check-up. We will continue to go with him to the hospital, until he is fully
recovered.
“We thank
Rivers United’s management, most especially the team’s secretary Ahmed Abdulraman
for their sportsmanship. They showed love to Gambo since the incident happened
and till he left Port-Harcourt to Kano.
It is a family matter and it can happen to anybody,” Malikawa said.
