Sama'ila Bello runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 34. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match19 Aug 2026

El-Kanemi Warriors out of the cup

Kwara United ended it 2‑3. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Match22 Aug 2026

Adamu Ibrahim wins it after the whistle should have gone

91 minutes played. Adamu Ibrahim found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and Wikki Tourists went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

No sign of nerves from Crisconti Larry at 19 — 8.26

The hardest thing about being 19 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Crisconti Larry did not need any: 8.26, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Market24 Aug 2026

Bunu Sale hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what El-Kanemi Warriors can pretend not to have heard.

Squad24 Aug 2026

El-Kanemi Warriors lose Zayyad Musa

53 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at El-Kanemi Warriors

Sylvester Igboun was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Daddy Abdulrahman out for 40 days

The medical room confirms 40 days on the sidelines for Daddy Abdulrahman, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Market24 Aug 2026

Wikki Tourists watching Risilanu Ismail

The interest is real enough to have reached print. El-Kanemi Warriors have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Thankgod Ikeagwu signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Thankgod Ikeagwu commits to El-Kanemi Warriors for another 3 years.

Tempers go at El-Kanemi Warriors

Emmanuel Nwabufo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Words at El-Kanemi Warriors training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Sama'ila Bello is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The crowd has taken to Emmanuel Jonas

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match1 Aug 2026

El-Kanemi Warriors get the job done against Abia Warriors

A 2‑0 win over Abia Warriors, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Market3 Aug 2026

No place for Emmanuel Nwabufo in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Emmanuel Nwabufo has his answer from El-Kanemi Warriors; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Squad3 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Bilal Yakubu

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

One of those days for Emmanuel Jonas

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.22, and no argument anywhere in the ground.
