Enyimba Football Club of Aba has officially appointed Stanley Eguma as their new Technical Adviser, Eguma replaces Yemi Olarenwaju, whose tenure ended abruptly following a string of disappointing results.
The club’s management cited the team’s dismal performances as the driving force behind Olarenwaju’s dismissal. Enyimba endured a nine-match winless streak across all competitions under his leadership, drawing seven and losing two, a record that left fans and management frustrated.
“The decision to part ways with Coach Olarenwaju was not taken lightly,” a club insider revealed. “Enyimba is a team with a rich history and high expectations. Unfortunately, the results this season did not meet the standards we demand.”
Stanley Eguma, a seasoned tactician who led Rivers United to the Nigeria Premier League title in 2022, now steps into the role with the task of steadying the ship. Despite being dismissed by Rivers United earlier this year.
Enyimba currently sits 11th in the Nigeria Premier League standings with three games in hand and occupies the bottom spot in their CAF Confederation Cup group d.
Fans and stakeholders will hope Eguma’s appointment can rejuvenate the two-time African champions and bring a much-needed turnaround to their faltering campaign. Eguma’s first test will be revitalizing an underperforming squad as the face Plateau United in the Nigeria Premier football league on the 31st of December in Aba
