She engaged in routine training as part of her rehabilitation process.
Nonye, who described herself as Okpala’s number one fan, expressed satisfaction at her level of recovery after seeing her play again.
According to Nonye: “The training is part of her process of recovery.
“It keeps her busy, focused and mentally balanced.
“I am impressed with her training and work rate, her footwork, flexibility and understanding of the game.
“I am committed to Tania’s full recovery.
“As she recovers, we will engage her positively to ensure she goes back to tertiary institution for further studies.”
