Enyimba have chosen to play their home matches for the next league season at the UJ Esuene Stadium, Calabar as their permanent home as the Enyimba International Stadium, Aba is still undergoing repairs and won’t be ready for the start of the season.
The Chairman of the People’s Elephant, Felix Anyansi Agwu who revealed this to our sports desk on Saturday during the NPFL 2016/17 season draws held at the Golden Royale Hotel, Enugu, said they will feel more at home in Calabar than any other alternative available to them.
He said they would like to play where it is devoid of competition and where they will be fully concentrated on the game and not other distracting things.
Anyansi Agwu pointed out that there was nothing special in being drawn to face Sunshine Stars in the season’s opener and that they would prepare for the Owena Whales the same way they will do to other clubs they will trade tackles with after the Akure Gunners.
