According to a top official of Enyimba of Aba said on Sunday night that Usman Abdallah is a coach we respect so much and would love to have in our team for eternity, the France trained gaffer won the league for Enyimba last season, has an existing contract with us until the end of the season.

"We have a good team but unfortunately we don't have a tactical approach, this resulted to our decision and we've asked him to step aside for now, his assistant Fatai Osho would act for now until a decision is reached for a new head coach.

“It is a very difficult decision for us, but that's the game, the former coach is a nice and great tactician, he has tried all he could but tactics and techniques seems not to be working anymore for him, so we wish him well in his future endeavours. 

Enyimba will on Sunday host Paradou AC in the second leg Fixture of the CAF Confederations Cup at the Aba Township Stadium.
