Omo, this one na serious gbege for Enyimba Football Club wey dey for Aba. Dem don summon dem management over $1 million wey dem collect for African Football League after dem enter quarter-finals. Wetin happen be say, Enyimba no fit show how dem take spend di money, and as e be so, na wahala don start.
Dem say dis probe no be small thing oh! Abia State government don dey eye dem sharp sharp. Dem wan know how dis big cash wey dem receive from CAF don affect club administration. The players sef don tire, cause dem dey protest over unpaid allowances. How person go dey play football without money? Na wah!
According to reports, Enyimba participate for di first edition of di tournament in 2023, but dem allow Wydad Casablanca run dem komot with 4-0 aggregate. Dem collect that $1 million based on participation, but di matter wey dey happen now na serious matter. Players don dey complain say dem no fit train well, because money no dey. Na wetin you wan make dem do?
Di snitch from insiders talk say, players don dey gather outside training ground, dey train without di coaches. Chai! Some of dem don even japa, because dem no fit manage the unaffordable stress of no allowance. Wetin be dis? As dem dey shout, ‘We dey play for una, make una pay us our money!’ Di management dey shake as players don dey demand clarity for how di club dey run.
Make we talk as e be, dem say chairman, Kanu Nwankwo, don try make some changes, but di state government don dey oversee wetin dey happen well well. Dem try appoint Emmanuel Deutsch as new coach, just as Kanu try find another sporting director. Talk about drama!
With Enyimba sit down for 11th position on di league table, dem dey face serious trouble. As e dey be now, dem still go face Bendel Insurance for their next match, and e no go sweet at all if dem no get full squad and morale. Na so e be for dis football matter wey dey burst my head!
Make we see how all dis drama go end, because dem don start one serious tussle for Abia State football. Na money and management wahala wey dey on ground, and all eyes dey on Enyimba. Gbogbo e go make sense if dem fit resolve dis matter fast, before dem go bring di whole club down from this wahala.
