Super Falcons midfielder Ngozi Okobi has welcomed her first child seven years after tying the knot with real estate mogul Ahmed Okeoghene.
Okobi announced the goodnews in a post on her official X handle on Tuesday, September 17, 2024.
She wrote: “Congratulations to me #godbepraised #iamamother #newmom “I am in my new season”.
The 30-year-old football star got married to her husband Okeoghene on December 9, 2017, in Delta State.
Okobi 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, and played at the 2015 and 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
She was however excluded from the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup squad by former coach Randy Waldrum and hasn’t returned to the national team since then.
