Christian Obodo

Following the resue of Christain Obodo from kidnappers, the Delta state police command claimed that the abducted soccer star was rescued by police in Emevor in Isokoland, a position corroborated by the Delta State Commissioner for Information, Chika Ogeah. However, the local vigilantes, Emevor said the police lied about the release of Obodo and asked the police to give them credit and not undue credit all by themselves.

The local vigilante member said the football star who was earlier in the day hidden in a nearby forest but was moved to a local food vendor for dinner by his abductors. He said, that Mr. Obodo acted quickly and sneaked out of the place before he screamed on top of his voice for help which led some good villagers to alert the Community vigilante who swiftly came to his rescue and later called the Police in Emevor who came and took Obodo away. The were angry at the heroism the police command ascribed only to itself.
