The management of Abia Warriors Football Club of Umuahia has given the coach of the team, Imama Amapakabo and his technical team, mandate to turn club fortunes around by winning their next three matches or be ready to face stiff sanctions.
The
ultimatum came after management held an emergency meeting with the coaches at
the club’s secretariat in Umuahia following the dismal performance of the team
in the on-going Nigeria Professional Football League where Abia Warriors have lost
their four league games.
Abia
Warriors’s dwindling performances in the campaign reached the climax on
Wednesday when they stumbled to a 3-1 home defeat to Jigawa Golden Stars in the
mid-week game in Aba. The defeat which
is their fourth leaves them rock bottom of the table.
The club’s Sporting
Director, Patrick Ngwaogu, reiterated that the team has no reason not to do
well considering the caliber of players in the team pointing out that technical
crew, led by Amapakabo has enjoyed the greatest support and cooperation ever given
to any crew in the Club’s history.
Imama’s
tough task begins this weekend when Abia
Warriors travel to Nnewi for matchday 5 encounter against another embattle
league campaigner FCIfeanyiUbah. The
team will then lock horns with impressive Lobi Stars at Aper Aku Stadium in
Markurdi before returning home to play Mountain of Fire and Miracle ministries
(MFM) FC in the third game.
It is yet to
be seen if the former Super Eagles assistant coach would survive the heat.
