Uche Okagbue, a former Nigeria Junior international and ex- FC Ifeanyi Ubah coach, is currently in a race to save his life, Completesports.com can exclusively report.
Okagbue, also a former Head Coach of Remo Stars is understood to be down with stroke and is currently battling to save his life from the strange ailment.
Completesports.com traced the former Sporting Lagos FC gaffer to his Onitsha residence where the dark-hued one time Ozala FA transit Manager was seen lying on the floor of his parlour.
He revealed exclusively to Completesports.com how the ailment started, saying that he’s gradually getting better after a live lizard was removed from his waist by a local medicine man.
“I’m grateful to God that I’m alive today and getting better,” Okagbue began when Completesports.com visited him on Wednesday afternoon.
“This thing started about two months ago just like waist pain.
“That was about two months before the end of the 2921/2022 NNL season.
“It defied all manner of orthodox medications. And when it also defied spiritual approach as I visited my pastor and some other men of God, I decided to come back home.
“At the time, I could never stand nor move one step. My right leg was the worst.
“Then, I visited a traditional medicine man here in Anambra State (name of the village withheld).
“Strangely, and shockingly too, he pulled a live lizard from the right side of my waist.
“You can imagine my surprise. And since then, honestly, I’m feeling a bit better.
“Atleast, I can now now stand up and possible move one step. It’s just that the right leg is yet to get back to full life but I know and believe too, that I’ll eventually be okay,” Okagbue narrated.
