After our infamous Continental Campaign, this match offers […]
Good morning, Enyimba family! The Cairo chapter is closed, and yes, we fell short. Oddly enough, I’m not crushed by our defeat to Zamalek. Was I hoping for a miracle? Of course. But let’s face it: our record in Egypt—now 8 straight losses—never really screamed “upset incoming,” especially against the […]
Good morning All I told you it was gonna be fun, didn’t I? I’m talking of President Trump’s inauguration. You watch such things and you can only hope and wish for Nigeria. We have the human resources and raw materials – i hope one day, we can evolve into something […]

Good morning All Sunday’s draw fades into the Sunset and attention focuses on what is ahead. It has been a less than stellar Continental showing for us, and although we still have that slim chance of making it out of the Group, I am one of the few people who […]
Good day, Aba and beyond! Aba’s Mondays can feel deserted, and when combined with the post-holiday calm, the result is a stark contrast to the city’s usual vibrant buzz. Most people are either catching up on rest or, like me, replaying Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Al Masry in their heads. […]
