Congratulations to Enugu Rangers (the Flying Antelope)

The match was like a final. Ref no come gree to blow final whistle after 90mins . Imagine 10mins injury time added

Maybe he has ulterior motives which couldn't materialise.

Congratulations to Enugu Rangers.

I am not happy though: our own Bendel Insurance is relegated. TOO BAD! Someone is parading himself as a youth governor. Where is the motivation for the players?

Throughout next year, there won't be an NFPL match at our prestigious Sam Ogbemudia Stadium. Ekehuan and Airport roads will become dry on weekends. This is too painful 😖😣.

I just checked to see we are not relegated. We only missed out at the continental qualifications.

Big congrats to them! They fought hard for that away win in Lagos, well deserved champions. Now they're tied with Enyimba at 9 trophies

Congrats to Rivers United, Shooting stars and Ikorodu City for grabbing the continental tickets. Go do us proud the continental stage!

That's if they will. All of them are local champions, even though I hate to admit it

And you think our local champions in Enugu Rangers, Remo stars, Rivers United, Enyimba and co will do anything against those well organized clubs.

Today, Enugu Rangers made history when they beat hosts Ikorodu City 2-1 to equal the all-time record of nine NPFL championships held by regional rivals Enyimba.

Captain Chidiebere Nwobodo scored in either half for ‘The Flying Antelopes’ be be crowned champions ahead of closest rivals Rivers United.

Substitute Moses Ali scored a consolation goal for the home team in the 58th minute after goalkeeper Lucky Jimoh failed to hold on to a shot from distance.

Rangers topped the standings with 68 points from 38 matches, a point more than Rivers United, who beat Katsina United 3-0 in their final game of the campaign.

It will be coach Fidelis Ilechukwu’s second league championship with the Enugu club.

Rangers will now represent Nigeria in the CAF Champions League along with runners-up Rivers United.

I don’t think the 4th place team will be in a continental competition.

It’s the winner of The President’s Cup that gets the 4th slot.

You can't blames those that ruled out Enugu Rangers, you know they are playing away from home and it's very rare to get away win in Nigeria league...

Thank God they won... I was personally worried about the possibility of them getting maximum 3poinf in Lagos cos Ilorodu City are also in good form...

Congratulations to the flying Antellops of Enugu...

We need more south-easterners in our national team . . .

Just look at how Iheanacho resurrected back his career with Celtic.

He scored the winning goal as Celtic won the scottish cup yesterday

Congratulations to Enugu Rangers!

It's interesting seeing teams getting away wins; Nigeria premier league is getting better.

For a region good in football, a SE governor should build a FIFA standard stadium; it's a long-term investment

BTW, these guys shouldn't struggle throughout the year for just 200 million. We can do better!

Here we go again with you asking government to spend money to build a stadium, instead of facilitating the clubs to build their stadium, as they do in those places where we pray and fast to japa to.

If you are not watching the games live and/or watching them on television, then how do you want the LMC to generate more money to increase the prize money?

Meanwhile, are you aware that Lagos State has three clubs in the next season, and they are all private, for profit entities.

Kaduna Ranchers Bees is another private, for profit club in the premier league next season.

Should you not be advocating for the privatisation of your own home team as well huh

Re: Enugu Rangers Win Record 9th NPFL Title by Jman06(m): 8:06pm On May 24

Since the emergence of governor Peter Mbah as the governor of Enugu state, Rangers have been doing excellently well in the Nigerian league. It is not a coincidence but a result of Mbah's intentional transformation of every sector in the state's economy towards greater productivity.

Kudos to Rangers FC!

Kudos to governor Peter Mbah!

How much transformation has your progressive governor achieved in basic education for all children, by employing teachers and renovating schools, by providing matching funds to benefit from UBEC federal money?

UBEC that was created by Obasanjo/ Atiku administration in 1999, to help states achieve nine years of free and compulsory education for all children.

Enugu Rangers coach Ilechukwu is the best coach i have seen in our local league in recēnt years.
The man has been consistently performing well in the last five years back-to-back. His attacking style of Play is scintillating to watch.

From MFM FC to Rangers FC

He has now won 2 league Titles with Rangers already

He deserves to coach the Nigeria National team in the nearest future!

We will make sure he gets a national team appointment. Bookmark this post.

In the area of education, Peter has been doing quite well with the establishment of the smart green schools across all wards in the state. Many teachers have equally been employed and trained to teach in the smart schools. The education sector in the state receives the highest cut of the state's annual budget which has translated to improved education in the state.
