The decisive goal came from star winger Joseph Atule, who scored in the second half, securing Enyimba's first win in three matches.

This victory is a welcome respite for the club, which had faced weeks of discontent and calls for Chairman Kanu to step aside.

Under the guidance of Coach Stanley Eguma, Enyimba demonstrated resilience and determination to put an end to the challenges they faced in recent weeks.

Enyimba will now host FA Cup holders El-Kanemi Warriors in Aba next weekend, looking to build on this momentum. The match promises to be an exciting encounter, with both teams seeking to assert their dominance in the league.

Chairman Kanu, known affectionately as "Papilo," has been under scrutiny, but this win could spark a turning point for his tenure at Enyimba.

The club's success is not only a reflection of Kanu's leadership but also a reminder of the team's potential to compete at the highest level in Nigerian football.

As Enyimba continue their push for a top-three finish, which would secure a continental spot, this victory serves as a crucial step towards achieving that goal.

With several matches remaining in the season, the team's focus will be on maintaining consistency and capitalising on their latest win.
