Anyansi dismisses protest speculations

By Daily Sports on February 11, 2017

 Enyimba Chairman, Felix Anyansi-Agwu, has condemned reports that supporters of the club are gearing up for protests in Aba over non-completion of work in the stadium.

The reports claim that supporters of the club under the aegis of concerned Enyimba supporters have concluded plans to march round Aba to demand the immediate completion of the rehabilitation work in the stadium.

Speaking in Calabar after Enyimba’s 1-0 win over Akwa United in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) on Thursday, Anyansi Agwu labelled the reports ”misleading and shameful”.

“These are untrue reports. Very untrue, very misleading and very shameful.

“There are no such plans by supporters of the club to protest what, as far as I believe there is a genuine attempt by the Dr (Ikpeazu) Okezie (Executive Governor of Abia State) led administration to develop Enyimba’s infrastructure and make us more competitive.

“A government that is not concerned about the welfare of a club will not embark on such a huge venture in light of the current economic condition of the country and in particular, Abia State, so it puzzles me how a story like this can be cooked up.

“Our supporters held no meetings planning a protest, neither did they contact anyone to protest on their behalf.

“Our supporters just left Calabar now in a triumphant spirit after our victory here and are planning to travel to Minna to cheer the team in our next game, so who is protesting?

“As a matter of fact, this group that calls itself Concerned Enyimba Supporters have no connection with Enyimba.

“We have never heard of them so I urge the public to disregard any actions or words coming from the group,” he said.

Enyimba is currently in fourth place in the NPFL standings with 13 points from seven matches.
