Meet Kennedy Boboye, The Coach Behind Akwa United NPFL Title Victory by robosky02(m): 12:22am On Aug 02, 2021 |
History was made today in Uyo as Akwa united football club won the Nigeria professional football league for the first time, and thereby joining the elite class of clubs who have won the league like Enyimba, Kano pillars, Rangers etc However one man who was the brain behind all this success is the head coach of the team, Coach Kennedy Boboye. Kennedy Boboye is relatively new in the coaching business in Nigerian football but is already taking over with two league title now first with Plateau united and now with Akwa united. He is certainly among the new bread of coaches and manager in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), He has managed Sunshine Queen FC, Sunshine Stars FC, Abia Warriors, Plateau United, Remo Stars FC and now with Akwa United FC. In other words he has managed clubs in the west,north, South and the east of Nigeria in his Short time. Many will not know that the lanky manager was once a footballer who player for Nigerian clubs, National team and European club. Boboye born in Jan 1, 1974 his career as a professional footballer started with Sharks FC of Port-Harcourt in 1990 before joining Udoji United in 1993. Kennedy Boboye’s NPFL Profile Sunshine Stars Kennedy Boboye commenced his sojourn in Nigeria’s Premier League in 2015 after his appointment to man the reins at Sunshine Stars. However he announced his decision to resign as coach of the Nigeria premier league side despite helping them record over 30 wins, six draws and just 14 defeats. After a brief stay with Abia warriors Kennedy Boboye was in appointed as plateau united coach on November 3, 2016 as replacement for Zachary Baraje who had resigned after a disappointing eighth-place finish in the Nigeria Professional Football League the previous season. Boboye went on to win the league with plateau united in his first year at the club. From plateau he joined Remo On January 18, 2019, succeeding Fatai Osho as new head coach. However, the team got relegated to the country’s second division – the Nigeria National League (NNL) and without hesitation, Boboye jumped ship at the end of the season. Therefore come this 2019/2020 NPFL season, Kennedy Boboye took over as Akwa united coach. And today he has won the league again in his first season with Akwa united. It is also worthy of mentioned that Kennedy Boboye is no new comer to the footballing world. In fact he should have been in the class of Kanu Nwankwo, Okocha and other as he was part of the dream team to Atlanta 1996 from the beginning until a car accident injuries that prevented the then super striker from reaching his peak as a player However today what he could not achieve as a player he has achieved as a coach. So let's celebrate the making of the next great Nigerian coach Kennedy Boboye. Source: Robosky02 75 Likes 2 Shares

Kennedy Boboye makes history as Akwa United win NPFL title for the first time! Akwa United couldn’t have wished for anything else than to win their first NPFL title in front of their home fans at the Nest of Champions in Uyo. Kennedy Boboye’s side only needed a draw to emerge as Champions but they got an outright win as they thumped MFMFC 5-2. Ashtimene Charles opened the flood gates of goals in the 24th minute before Adebayo Alimi did the away side a disservice with an own goal to make it 2 nil for Akwa United before halftime. Mfon Udoh added to the misery of MFMFC in the 62nd minute with the third goal. Michael Mbonu pulled a goal back for the away side six minutes later but Ashtimene wasn’t done scoring as he got his brace with five minutes to regulation time. Ashtimene Charles got his hattrick in the extra time of regulation time as he claimed his 18th goal of the season. Kennedy Boboye made history as he becomes the first coach to win the NPFL title twice in the LMC era after his previous triumph with Plateau United. Akwa United currently have 71 points after 37 games. They will take on Lobi Stars in their final group game of the season Lalasticlala mynd44 https://naijasuperfans.com/kennedy-boboye-makes-history-as-akwa-united-win-npfl-title-for-the-first-time/amp/ 12 Likes
