Abia Warriors will miss Nweke, says Biffo


By our reporter

Abia Warriors Chief Coach, Abdullahi Usman Biffo has described club's midfielder Kalu Nweke’s injury as unfortunate, sportinglens.blogspot.com reports.


Nweke was ruled out of action for two weeks after he sprained his ankle during his club’s 0-1 loss to Katsina United in the matchday 22 of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) clash at the Karkanda Stadium last Sunday.

Biffo said that as an important member of the team he would be missed and wished him quick recovery.

Nweke was about to pull the trigger after he had his full sight on goal before he was brutally hacked down inside the area by a Katsina defender but the centre referee looked the other way as Abia Warriors bench pleaded for a spot kick.

The midfielder was then stretchered off in pains after being attended to by the medical staff and substituted.

Abia Warriors medical team led by Dr. Enyinnaya Anozie after proper examination identified the injury as ankle sprain, revealing that he would be out of action for at least two weeks.
