I need my family with me, Lobi Stars Coach laments

Post created on 2:03 pm

The head coach of Lobi Star Football Club in Benue State, Eddy Dombraye, has lamented that his wife and child were stranded in Ukraine.

This came as the Ukraine government, yesterday, offered Russian soldiers money and promised them immunity from punishment if they surrendered.

Dombraye told The Cable News that, his wife and five year old kid had been stuck at the train station in Ukraine trying to escape to Poland but the train was cancelled.

“The train was supposed to move by 11 a.m., Monday but it was cancelled. I have been in touch with them every minute to work on alternatives.”

Dombraye, whose other child is in Poland, also said his wife and two children were supposed to join him in Nigeria on Sunday after he got the job as Lobi Star head coach in September 2021,  but their flight was canceled due to the crisis.

The 42-year-old also expressed concerns over his inability to rescue his family, adding that this was the worst thing to happen to any parent.
