It has been unusually quiet since that defeat in Ilorin. Not the calm kind of quiet but the heavy, suffocating silence that settles after something painful. Because that loss hurt. Deeply. And the worst part wasn’t even the result itself, but the fake glimmer of a comeback that flickered briefly… […]
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 […]
Super Eagles failure to progress in the World Cup playoff briefly distracted the country from Enyimba’s 1–0 home loss to Wikki Tourists, but the reactions inside the club quickly dragged the People’s Elephant back into the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.

It’s Friday. The blessed final lap of the work week. That moment when tension starts melting, shoulders drop a little, and the mind drifts toward weekend football fever. And this one already feels like premium content, especially after the Super Eagles dragged us through emotional gymnastics before finally settling the […]
Today is Matchday. Not of the regular Enyimba hue, but a nation’s quest to be among the gathering of the best footballing countries at the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This is one of those rare moments when our patriotic bones come alive, and when […]
Finally, we witnessed what can truly be called the first real Abia Derby. Not the usual friendly neighborhood kickabout between one ambitious side and another just showing up for duty, but a proper, full blooded derby that checked all the boxes — noise, colour, tension, drama, fanfare, and yes, even […]
