At times, when a team need to win their league championship, their home form can also play a vital role in propelling them to such heights. In 2005 when Enyimba won their fourth Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) title, they won all of their 19 home matches and conceded just […]
The weekend is here and we all are looking forward to the next round of matches in Nigeria’s top flight and so much so, another home game for the People’s Elephant. The visitors this time are Katsina United who have hardly ever had joy travelling down to Aba. But before […]
Good morning, everyone! I’m sitting here, staring at my device, and wondering just how to get this post started today. I mean, “how” is to start punching away, but putting the thoughts and prevalent emotions in check is the very hard part. Then, of course, letting loose the flow is […]
Good morning Everyone, So we bounced back and shook off Sunday’s disappointing defeat with a 1-0 victory against Akwa United. Austin Onyemaechi in his first appearance for the club saved the day and joined the exclusive club of debutant goal scorers for Enyimba. And I can happily write the sentence […]

Good morning/afternoon Everyone, Today’s post is coming quite late, much later than we are used to. Apologies. It’s Monday morning and I am sitting in a airplane, flying from one part of the East Coast to another. Clearly I am not in Aba or in Rivers State and I did […]
Rivers United secured a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Enyimba FC at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt. Ubong Friday scored against the run of play in the 15th minute, giving Rivers United an early lead. Enyimba pushed for an equalizer but couldn’t breach the hosts’ defense. Seifeya Jackson sealed […]
Hey there! It’s another sanitation weekend, and like clockwork, my mind drifts to those childhood tunes from the radio… “Cleanliness is next to godliness, so make it a habit today… Remember, Abia is God’s Own State, so keep it clean, make Abia a cleaner state, a better state today…” That […]
It’s Friday – a day traditionally seen as the happiest day of the week. For Enyimba, not just the day but this week has been a very happy one. After overcoming Étoile Filante de Ouagadougou in the CAF Confederation Cup playoff to reach the group stage last weekend and then […]
