Match19 Aug 2026
Nasarawa United bow out of the cup
Plateau United go through and Nasarawa United go home, 0‑2 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

107 days out for Hassan Adamu after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Nasarawa United will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.
Market24 Aug 2026
Collins Onovughe 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 Nasarawa United can pretend not to have heard.
Market24 Aug 2026
Gudja United come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Nasarawa United did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Ameh Godwin is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Nasarawa United is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Ameh Godwin signs for Rivers United while still at Nasarawa United
The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Ameh Godwin has agreed terms with Rivers United for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

Umar Ada in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Nasarawa United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Match22 Aug 2026
Nasarawa United get the job done against Bendel Insurance
A 1‑0 win over Bendel Insurance, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Gozie Umeh in the eights
A performance of 8.12 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.
In brief
