Lobi Stars
technical adviser, Godwin Uwua has taken his suspension by the club in good
faith and insists he will wait till the club calls him back.
The former
Flying Eagles coach was suspended on Monday for three weeks by the board for
his team’s 0-0 home draw against Katsina United in the Nigeria Professional
Football League (NPFL) matchday 8 in Makurdi on Sunday.
In a chat
with SportingLife, the former Enyimba FC of Aba manager said he bears no
grudges against anybody.
“I can’t say
the decision by the club to suspend me is fair or not but I’m under the club
and its management so I take it in good faith,” said Uwua to SportingLife.
“I was at
the training when they announced that I have been suspended for three weeks for
picking a draw in the game against Katsina United. In the game of football, it
is either you win, lose or draw. We have played seven matches and we have
picked away draw too. We are currently in 8th position on the league table, which
I don’t think is bad compared to others. In seven matches played so far, we won
three, drawn 2 and lose two games.
“I was
called to come and turnaround Lobi Stars and I am trying to do my best for the
team. I don’t have any bad feelings towards the board decision; it is a price
to pay in football. I will continue to do my best. To God be the glory.”
Coach Evans
Ogenyi has been directed to take over pending Uwua’s return from suspension.
