Wounded Abia Warriors FC goalkeeper Charles Tambe has been discharged from the University College Hospital, Ibadan, where he was admitted after being attacked by hoodlums last week Friday.

The Cameroonian import who was attacked in Apata area of Ibadan, Oyo State, while observing his personal workout, was shot on his right hand. He was admitted to the University College Hospital Ibadan, where he was given the best of treatment.

The goal tender, who at various times played for 3SC and Lobi Stars before teaming up with the Umuahia Warriors, was discharged from the hospital at the weekend

Speaking immediately after his discharge, a joyful Tambe said: “I am very grateful to God that I am alive today. What happened is just by the grace of the Almighty God. I am very much indebted to my club, Abia Warriors FC, especially the Chairman, Pastor Emeka Inyama, who is a father figure to everyone one of us.

“The love in the club is second to none and I really appreciate them. I’m also grateful to all Nigerians for their concern. I am really grateful to everyone.”

The towering shot stopper remains optimistic that he would be back to action immediately the COVID-19 pandemic is over.
