John Obuh delighted to join Akwa United

Former Nigerian U17 coach, John Obuh has expressed his satisfaction joining two-times federation cup champions, Akwa United Football Club after signing one year contract with the Promise Keepers ahead of the 2019/2020 NPFL season.

The former Kwara United coach was officially unveiled at the press conference room of the Godswill Apkabio International Stadium on Monday, hailing the management of the club as they have a better structure than the last club he managed.

 

 

“There is comparison with clubs in Nigeria because they almost have the same character, in Europe where the highest spenders are expected to always top the league, the other ones are always trying to come and feed the highest spenders.

 

“The comparison between my last club and Akwa United is very wide in the sense that the managerial ability of the two sides are not same, financial ability are not same, quality of players purchased by both teams are not the same so it is already an advantage to me who have taken up this job, as I took this job with Passion because I have been hunting to coach this club for about six seasons, as my name always appear on the list of potential coaches to lead Akwa United, and I am happy it has come to pass”.

 

Also joining Akwa United’s technical crew for the new season is former Super Eagles, Grasshopper of Switzerland and Akwa United defender Duke Udi as the assistant Coach.

 

Obuh last assignment in the NPFL was with Kwara United in 2018 after guiding the team to gain promotion from the NNL, but was sacked due to bad run of results in the top flight.

 

The Abia State born coach, who started his coaching career in 1994/1995 season as a coach-player with Enyimba of Aba, has however set his sights on winning the NPFL title with the Uyo based side.
