Former National Coach Calls For Merging Of Enyimba FC And Abia Warriors

Nigeria’s former U-20 and U-17 coach, John Sam Obuh has called on those in charge of the major football clubs in Abia State, Abia Warriors and Enyimba FC, to consider merging them.

Obuh, a former Akwa United boss, who has also managed the likes of Enugu Rangers and Kwara United, pointed out that Enyimba does not have its history preserved anywhere.

In another development, Nigeria defeated Italy in an end-to-end encounter at the FIFA U-20 World Cup Argentina 2023, courtesy of Salim Fago Lawal’s diving header and Jude Sunday’s last-gasp finish.

The result means the Flying Eagles qualify for the knockout stage on six points while the Azzurri are on three points after two games apiece in Group D.
