Just like Nigerian Comedian Basket Mouth, popular footballer Ogenyi Onazi has also being visited by armed robbers.
The sad incident allegedly took place on Monday, 12th of September 2016 at his residence in Jos.
Ogenyi who is a super eagles midfielder wouldn’t be able to forget this experience in a hurry as it was said that the robbers gained entry with a disguise.
They allegedly disguised themselves as courier men who had come to deliver a letter to his dad within the hour of 1.40pm.
Upon gaining entrance the footballer’s father was beaten to a pulp and they catered away with valuables including a Toyota Highlander and huge sum of money.
Luckily for the footballer, he wasn’t around when the attack was launched and a message for him was left with his father, as the four men gang threatened to come back for Onazi.
In his words: “Those robbers came, pretending they were there to deliver a letter to my dad at about 1.40pm on Monday. But as soon as he collected their fake letter and asked where it was coming from they swooped on him, tied his hands, beat him up, and inflicting machete cuts on him in the process. They told him this is the first in a series of attacks that they will launch on our house and that I (Onazi) will be their target the next time. Those guys took their time to take some valuable materials including car and some cash but I am thankful to God they didn’t do more than that.”
