It’s all shades of congratulations for Super Falcon midfielder, Ngozi Okobi-Oke, and her husband Ahmed Okeoghene, as they recently welcomed their first child together.
The football star made the announcement on social media on Tuesday which came as an exciting surprise to fans as the player had kept her pregnancy journey away from social media.
According to the football star who plays for Spanish club Levante Las Planas the baby was born in Canada.
In a post on Instagram, she wrote, “Congratulations to me. #God be praised. #I am a mother. #New mom # Canadian baby,” while sharing photos of herself pregnant.
She is however yet to reveal the child’s gender.
It is to be recalled that Okobi tied the knot with her lover back in December 2017.
The midfielder started her career at Delta Queens, the football club in her hometown and has since played for Nigeria at the 2010 U-17 Women’s World Cup, the 2010 WAFCON, the 2012 FIFA U-20 World Cup, the 2014, 2016 2018, and 2022 WAFCON tournaments.
She also played at the 2015 and 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup and only took a break in 2023 when she was excluded from the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup players by Randy Waldrum.
