Akpan Nsikak-Abong keeps Kun Khalifat in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match22 Aug 2026

No end in sight to Kun Khalifat's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Kun Khalifat has to find a result from somewhere.

Market24 Aug 2026

Binga come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Kun Khalifat did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

The paperwork begins on Elkanah Godgift

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Kun Khalifat have done the hard part with Shooting Stars, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Kun Khalifat

Hassan Olubode and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market24 Aug 2026

Sliema Wanderers join the queue for Chijioke Ahiaeke

Add another name to the list: Sliema Wanderers have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Chijioke Ahiaeke. The answer from Kun Khalifat has not changed — yet.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Chikamso Amaefula

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Chukwuma Ukoh takes the honours

Marked 7.63 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Kun Khalifat had the best player on the pitch.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

A loan move for Godwin Akpo is in the works

Kun Khalifat have made the call to Barau. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market10 Aug 2026

Victor Kelechi asks to leave Kun Khalifat

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market10 Aug 2026

Real Bamako come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Kun Khalifat did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Kun Khalifat

Hassan Olubode 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.

One of our own: Isaac Onyeka joins the Kun Khalifat first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Isaac Onyeka is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market10 Aug 2026

Abdullahi Olagunju steps up from the Kun Khalifat academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Abdullahi Olagunju has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Match8 Aug 2026

Rivers United take the points off Kun Khalifat

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Gabriel Lekan signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Gabriel Lekan commits to Kun Khalifat for another 4 years.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

Chukwueze Awoniyi: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑1, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Kun Khalifat try to borrow Joseph Abah

Remo Stars have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.
