Market

Sunday Megwo asks to leave Abia Warriors

“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.

Match

Abia Warriors make it 4 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Abia Warriors have 4 straight wins of it.

Transfer targets

Abia Warriors baulk at the price for Eromosele Zibiri

Warri Wolves wanted more than $140.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Chidiebere Nnachi

At 23 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.

Abia Warriors promote Joshua Nwankwo from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Joshua Nwankwo has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

One of our own: Stephen Obi joins the Abia Warriors first team

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

Market

Oscar Bassey steps up from the Abia Warriors academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Oscar Bassey 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.

Match

Sunday Megwo sends Abia Warriors past Ikorodu City

It finished 1‑0, and it was Sunday Megwo’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Abia Warriors.

Player ratings

Nobody on the pitch touched Sunday Megwo

7.83, and no serious argument from anybody who was there. Abia Warriors had eleven men on the pitch and one of them decided how it went.

In brief
