Former Super Eagles Star Cries Out Over Alleged Invasion Of His Owerri Hospital


Former Super Eagles striker Emmanuel Emenike has raised an alarm over what he described as an invasion of his hospital in Owerri by operatives of the Imo State Police and waste management officials.


Emenike claimed that the incident occurred on October 21, 2026, and resulted in panic among patients and the arrest of two hospital staff. He noted that a similar incident had earlier taken place on September 25.


Reacting to the development on Instagram, he wrote:


"After representing my dear country on the international stage, playing in Europe and celebrating the trophy of winning the Africa Cup of Nations, I chose to bring my experience and success home to Imo State. I invested in my community and built a hospital - a place where people could seek care, find comfort and hold on to hope. It was a gesture of faith in my people and a commitment to helping my home state thrive. That is why the reports of what happened today 21st October, 2026 at Emenike Hospital are so painful. A place built to care for people should never become a place where patients are afraid and staff are left feeling unsafe. We call on the hospital community to receive the protection and support it needs. Imo State deserves investment. Its people deserve safety. And every hospital should remain a place of care and hope."
