FORMER Super Eagles player Christian Obodo has described his ordeal at the hands of kidnappers after his release from their custody.
The former midfielder was released on Monday after his abduction by unknown gunmen in Warri, Delta State on Sunday.
According to the police, Obodo was kidnapped at gunpoint while buying bananas along Refinery Road on Sunday.
“It was really uncomfortable being locked up in a hot car trunk for hours,” Obodo told Lagos radio station Brila FM on Monday.
“The kidnappers were complaining about losing money on bets they placed on the Super Eagles versus Sierra Leone match.
“They didn’t hurt me but I can’t understand the reason for anyone to want to put me through this sort of thing over again.”
It was not not the first time Obodo would be kidnapped; he was first abducted in 2012, also in Warri.
He was rescued by the police after one day in captivity.Obodo, 36, played for several clubs in Europe, including Udinese, Fiorentina and Lecce, over a 14-year period and had 21 caps for the Super Eagles
