L-R - Amokachi and Ifeanyi Ubah during the former's unveiling as the team coach in Anambra
Following their 1-0 loss to Sharks FC in the Week 29 of the
Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) tie at the Sharks Stadium, Chairman
of Ifeanyi Ubah FC, Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah ordered the team bus to leave Port
Harcourt empty Sunday night without the players as the camp was thrown into
crisis as a result of the loss.
It was gathered from a source in Port Harcourt that the team
bus left the Tenad Palace Hotel, in Port Harcourt 9:30pm for Imo, without
putting the players into consideration. It was further revealed that the
chairman was furious with every member of the team basically because of the
loss.
"Crisis in Port Harcourt as Fc Ifeanyi Ubah Chairman
ordered the team bus to leave Port Harcourt empty with the technical crew and
the Players. Every members of the team are still in the hotel after losing to
Sharks; but the main issue is the order that stopped the players from entering
the bus which left the Tenad Palace Hotel 9:30pm", the source reported on Sunday night.
Team’s chief coach, Daniel ‘Da Bull’ Amokachi granted an
interview, few hours after the loss, expressing hope and confidence that
continental ticket is still very possible.
"Our chances of getting a continental ticket is very realistic if we win our two consecutive home matches against Kano Pillars and Giwa FC", Amokachi told NAN on Sunday.
But little did he and the entire team know that the chairman
was going to make such order, which is a clear indication that the Capital Oil
Chief Executive is not ready to take any excuse and promises, but only wants to
see the result, as he is already running out of patience.
Lets recall that Daniel Amokachi, John Obuh and Ike Shorunmu were hired by
the oil tycoon in August to improve the standard of the club in the 2015 NPFL
season
