Rivers United secretary Ahmed Abdulrahman said Gambo has fully recovered and was full of gratitude to all who contributed to his rapid recovery.
Abdulrahman visited Gambo at BMH on Monday in the company of the club’s co-ordinator, Bashiru Badawi, and three of the Rivers United players, Andoh, Sunday Rotimi and club captain Festus Austin.
