Good morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s been a minute around these parts, but make no mistake \u2014 we\u2019re still here. The silence wasn\u2019t absence; it was survival mode. Because let\u2019s be honest, being an Enyimba fan lately feels like riding a keke with faulty brakes \u2014 just when you think you\u2019ve seen daylight, twilight taps you on the shoulder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From the high of that dominant derby win in Enugu, we\u2019ve somehow nosedived into a mini mutiny. On Friday and Saturday, our boys downed tools \u2014 no training, no movement, no vibes. It took a late intervention on Sunday to bring them back, and even that had to be massaged into a social media PR spin on the club’s official X page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not great optics. Not great for morale. And definitely not the kind of energy you want when the season\u2019s at its sharp end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here’s the real kicker: the league is wide open. Teams around us are crawling. The door to the continent is cracked \u2014 all we need to do is kick it open. But instead of charging through, we\u2019re tripping over unpaid allowances and internal unrest. Self-sabotage, anyone?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, what exactly is going on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is the state government withholding subventions? Or are they releasing funds that vanish faster than our lead in second halves? And if government support is intact (which many believe it is, especially after the recent CAF largesse), then the spotlight swings to the club\u2019s management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This current management pleaded for time, patience, and support to rebuild. Many fans \u2014 reluctantly but respectfully \u2014 gave them that. But scenes like this? They chip away at trust. They plant doubt. And the question lingers: why is this still happening at Enyimba of all clubs?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This isn\u2019t just any team. This is nine-time champions, two-time African kings, pride of the East. The very symbol of footballing excellence in Nigeria. We should be setting standards, not staging strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, the remaining three matches of the season are staring us in the face. Two within the next week. It\u2019s not over yet \u2014 not mathematically, not emotionally. But it will take more than damage control tweets and patched-up training sessions to steady the ship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let every man \u2014 fan, player, coach, official \u2014 play their part. For in that, truly lies our honour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enyimba Enyi!
