While in hospital, Gambo was visited by some players of Rivers United at the Braithwaite Memorial Hospital, where he was hospitalized on Sunday following the injury from the Match Day 12 fixture in Port Harcourt.
Gambo was taken to the hospital after suffering a rupture of the tympanic membrane in the Nigeria Professional Football League clash against Rivers United.
Rivers United Secretary visited Gambo at BMH on Monday, accompanied by the club’s co-ordinator, Bashiru Badawi, and three of the Rivers United players – Wilson Andoh, Sunday Rotimi and club captain, Festus Austin.
The Pillars burly forward had clashed in mid-air with United’s Ghanaian striker Andoh in the 8th minute of the contest decided at the Yakubu Gowon Stadium and was promptly taken to the BMH after preliminary treatment by the two Rivers United doctors.
Gambo was back to his feet by Monday evening.
The Pillars captain was eventually discharged on Tuesday morning and was accompanied to the Port Harcourt International Airport, Omagwa on Tuesday by the club’s team manager, Salisu Yaro, and team doctor as they made their way back to Kano.
