Adekunle Mojeed runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 47. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Sama'ila Bello sends Enyimba through
Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Sama'ila Bello obliged against Ikorodu City. 2‑1 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Enyimba.

Both of them Sama'ila Bello's — 8.87
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.87, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.
Market24 Aug 2026
Okoh Afamefuna 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 Enyimba can pretend not to have heard.

Ufere Chukwu is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Enyimba is pretending he will be back in the shirt.
Boardroom24 Aug 2026
Ufere Chukwu has agreed to leave Enyimba for nothing
He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Tempers go at Enyimba

Words at Enyimba training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Kelvin Ogunga 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.
Transfer targets24 Aug 2026
Door shut on Jesse Akila
Enyimba asked and Hearts of Oak said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.
In brief
- The terraces One of their own: Augustine Nwaorisa

- The dugout The manager makes an example of Kelvin Ogunga
