Good morning, my dear Enyimba faithful! It’s been a while since I last wrote here, and the break was long enough for someone to jokingly ask if I’d packed my bags for another vacation—Seychelles this time. Let me assure you, no sunny beaches for me yet; I’ve been right here, […]
Well guys, how about that? Day 2 of our CAF Confederations Cup Campaign gave us all the shocker – Enyimba International came from behind to overturn a 2-goal deficit, earning the People’s Elephant a point against Egyptian Giants Zamalek. Sunday’s 2-2 draw at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium won’t be forgotten […]
It’s Match Day folks! One of the biggest games in the African continent this weekend goes down in Uyo today. It’s a CAF Confederation Cup group stage game but anywhere in the continent that an Enyimba vs Zamalek game is mentioned, we know what goes into the conversation. These are […]
Saluté There’s only one place to start today and it is tomorrow’s cracker. The Pharoahs are in town. Should they be called Pharoahs? Or is Pharoah reserved for the big guns alone? The Mo Salahs, Mohammed Aboutrikas and the Mohammed Elnenys. Dunno. Ill ask around. Does it matter? They’re in […]
Good morning Everyone. You must be tired of my incessant apologies for posting late. I don’t have any excuses. I just didn’t write before I went to bed and being 6 hours behind Nigerian time means if I don’t write before I sleep, the blog may not be ready before […]
Good morning Guys, Just before I slept last night, I had penned down two likely things to write about on the blog today. Doing that helps me quickly roll out my thoughts the morning after when I’m here and ready to dish the meal for the day. However waking up […]
Not sure how to start today’s blog. Mornings like this are the most difficult in attempting to put emotions into words. The Oriental Derby against Rangers ended in a goalless draw. For us, our winless run continue and if you’re looking for lemonades or such consolations, our unbeaten run too. […]
It’s Matchday, dear Elephants! The day the Lord has made, and oh yes, we will rejoice and be glad in it. Tuesdays are rarely this glorious, but when it’s derby day—the Real Oriental Derby, the biggest and only authentic rivalry in the NPFL—you know it’s a day to remember. The rest? Wannabe […]
Top of the morning, Enyimba faithful! Now, before I get into the football, let me tell you about my recent “vacation.” Yes, you heard me right, I was on holiday in Greece, Santorini to be precise. Sun, sea, and the kind of dry harmattan that makes you feel like you’re […]
Greetings Everyone Another late post today. Apologies. Bear with me; my co-writers are on vacation. Chinatu is on a tour of Greece and George Akpayen is in Malaysia. I envy those guys. Enjoying life and just having zero thoughts or cares in the world. What a life. As your faithful […]
