Good morning All. It is midweek already and it appears December is on a mission to finish in record time. I want to begin by apologizing for the no-show on the blog yesterday. It was simply one of those days where everything said, “Not today, sir.” The weather’s crazy negative […]
The Elephant Park crackled with tension and tradition as Enyimba FC hosted Rangers International in another fiery edition of the Oriental Derby. Aba’s famous ground was packed, the air heavy with rivalry, and the stakes as high as ever between two of Nigeria’s most storied football clubs. This was not […]
The Oriental Derby could not have arrived at a better moment for Enyimba. After the disappointing loss to Katsina United in Ilorin and a growing cloud of frustration around the club, the People’s Elephant desperately needed a result that would steady nerves and restore belief. Pressure sat heavily on interim […]
Good day, all. At this point, it is just a matter of waiting for the announcement. Coach Deji Ayeni is a name I need to get used to typing, because in the next few weeks or even days, he will be a permanent fixture in every conversation about Enyimba. Barring […]

This was a loss built on avoidable mistakes, lapses in concentration, and a worrying lack of structure that Katsina punished without […]
It’s Matchday! Monday evening football is one of those rare, confusing NPFL experiences, though last season we got more than our fair share thanks to our own logistical hiccups. Today’s edition, however, is not our doing. The NPFL board’s decision to shift Katsina United’s home game to Ilorin (instead of […]
Happy Sunday! It’s the penultimate Sunday of November 2025, a gentle reminder that the year is quietly packing its bags. Thanksgiving season has also begun in Aba, that special period when the city feels like one giant family compound where everyone finds something to be grateful for, even if the […]
