With his connection to Arsenal maybe we'll be seeing players moving to the EPL from Enyimba.

Either way it's a nice change seeing a former player like him being chiarman of a club. This is a first cos the highest his peers ever went was as head coach

Nope. Read the title of the article. It was proposed last week, but it was only confirmed by the Abia State Government now.

This Gov Otti can act in an erratic manner. Anyansi Agwu brought a lot of glory and titles to enyimba. He ran the club in a very professional manner. To cap it all, he signed off with the league title bdfore his unfortunate sacking.

Its petty sometimes when politics is mixed with emotions.

I learnt former chairman fought to stop this from happening

The former Chairman had fought much more serious battles in that Club than this and won. There used to be attempts to remove him whenever a new Governor takes over in Abia State. Obviously, he would have retained his position this time around, if not that the 'Pharoah that knew not Joseph came to power'. If you know, you know.

Bros, you are right. Football and politics are 5 & 6. Gov. Otti obviously wants to overhaul everything PDP in the State. Enyimba Club/stadium is usually a great platform for campaign in Abia State, they would have campaigned for PDP in the last election.

Kanu was not the top scorer at Japan 93, Wilson Oruma was the top scorer with 6 goals.

Thanks Felix Anyasiagwu. During your time as Enyimba's chairman, Enyimba became the most successful Nigerian clubside.

You did well sir



Mr. Felix is an amiable and gentle goal getter. He has done well in Enyimba, with great knowledge of football politics in Nigeria. He will continue to excel in his future endeavors.
A 1000 gbosas for Mr. Chairman - Chief Felix Anyansi-agwu. cheesy cheesy cheesy

very good for npfl....but why is he always standing like he want to take a dump undecided
Aging legs, supporting that body frame is not an easy job. When he sits sometimes he needs someone to pull him up even during his very active years of football.

I remember Kanu as someone who can be very tactical but also emotional. So he really looks like someone who can function as a technical adviser but not head coach.

I remember how he used to go to coaches and point out what he has observed in the game being played and when he is substituted into the game he will exploit those loopholes of the opponent and help to go on to win the game.

Kanu is the new Chairman of Enyimba Fc not Coach, Finidi George is the Coach..

I hope this appointment was made in good faith and not with treachery, mischief and nepotism.

The out going chairman Mr. Felix Anyansiagwu was a trail blazer, achiever, talented& experienced manager....he managed the Eyimba FC so well and his reign came with so much successes.
He kept delivering back to back to back trophies(national& intercontinental) with constant turn out of talented football players. He was undoubtably Nigeria's best club side manger for 2 decades and counting.

We will surely miss him&his expertise.
We the fans of Eyimba truly appreciate him and we say a very BIG thank you to him and his management team for bringing years of football excellence to Eyimba FC.
I am sure the good people of Abia state& Eyimba FC fans will miss him& appreciates him as well and I wish him the best in his future endeavors.

I feel this change of leadership in Eyimba FC by the governor is not right.

However, I hope for the best to come from the new chairman Mr. Kanu Nwankwo(Papillo) who we all know to be a football legend with years of experience at the pinacle of football....I hope Mr. Kanu&his team succeds& does better and takes things to more greater heights at Eyimba FC(by delivery more years of different trophies&talents).

Congratulations to Kanu.
