Rivers United of Port Harcourt have suspended their star player, Bernard Ovoke and The Garden City outfit disclosed Monday he will be out of action with the club until further notice due to what they called “gross misconduct.”
Ovoke has been one of Rivers United’s leading stars this season after he joined them from Bayelsa United of Yenagoa, but has now been suspended for “actions that border on anti-club activities and gross indiscipline.”
While confirming the development, the Port Harcourt-based side’s coach, Stanley Eguma explained what transpired and stressed that the decision had to be taken in the overall interest of the club.
“The club took this decision to suspend him because no one player is greater than the club. I must also state that Ovoke had been issued with several stern warnings on his conduct which unfortunately, had gone unheeded,” Eguma said.
