Enyimba FC Fan Calls Out Kanu Nwankwo Over Club’s Performance

A concerned fan of Enyimba FC, Ndubuisi Agu, has expressed disappointment over the club’s current state under the leadership of its chairman, Nigerian football legend Kanu Nwankwo.

In a post on his Facebook page, Agu criticized Kanu for allegedly being absent from the club’s affairs, stating that fans expected him to take Enyimba FC to greater heights but have instead been left confused by the direction the club is heading.

“Since we made Kanu Nwankwo Enyimba FC Chairman, it seems he doesn’t really know why we made him the chairman or his job,” Agu wrote. “Sir, we made you our chairman for you to take us to another level, but the level you are taking us to now is what we can’t understand. We fans are disappointed.”

He accused Kanu of spending more time abroad while the club struggles, urging him to step down if he cannot handle the responsibilities of the position.

“You now stay abroad while we suffer here. If you can’t do the job bro, please step down. This is not the Enyimba FC we used to know. Our management adirọ mma (is not good) at all,” he added.

Agu further questioned how many times Kanu had attended Enyimba’s matches to support the team, emphasizing that the club should not be handled with a lack of seriousness.

“This is Enyimba FC we are talking about, not Agamkpa FC, please. Be serious with this job,” he concluded.

Kanu Nwankwo was appointed chairman of the Aba-based club in 2023, and expectations have been high given his vast experience in football. However, recent concerns from fans suggest growing dissatisfaction with his leadership.

All efforts to reach Kanu Nwankwo for comments on the allegations proved abortive at the time of filing this report.
