Ikwunze applauds Abia Warriors’ resilience, backs Obuh’s leadership after Ikorodu triumph

Posted : 21 April 2026

Former Abia State Director of Sports, Ejikeme Ikwunze, has praised Abia Warriors FC for their resilience following a hard-earned 2–1 victory over Ikorodu City FC in a decisive Matchday 35 fixture of the Nigeria Premier Football League.

The encounter, held at the Enyimba International Stadium, saw the Umuahia-based side dig deep to secure maximum points against the Lagos-based Oga Boys—an outcome that keeps their continental ambitions firmly alive.

Reacting after the match, Ikwunze emphasized that victories of such intensity are built on grit and mental strength.

He urged the team to carry that same fighting spirit into their remaining fixtures as the season reaches its climax.

The former Abia Warriors chairman also reserved strong praise for club chairman John Sam Obuh, commending his leadership and the structural stability he has brought to the club.

According to Ikwunze, the ongoing transformation within the team is a testament to Obuh’s vision and discipline.

He further acknowledged the contributions of Media Officer Solomon Igwe, highlighting his professionalism and commitment in enhancing the club’s image and effectively communicating its progress.

Ikwunze concluded by wishing the team continued success, expressing confidence that the unity and discipline within the squad will translate into more achievements both on and off the pitch.

The victory over Ikorodu City FC serves as a powerful reminder of the progress Abia Warriors have made under their current leadership structure. By combining tactical discipline on the pitch with administrative stability off it, the club has positioned itself as a formidable contender in the final stretch of the NPFL season. As the team pushes for continental qualification, the endorsement from seasoned figures like Ikwunze underscores the growing optimism surrounding the Umuahia-based outfit.
