Edel FC has made a managerial change following a tough run in the NNL25 campaign, confirming the appointment of Hamza Abara as their new head coach. This decision comes after the resignation of Ndubuisi Ndah, whose tenure saw the team struggle with seven defeats in eight league matches. Abara is expected to turn the club’s fortunes around, with Kingsley Ihekwoaba joining as his assistant.
Ndubuisi Ndah, a former Rangers International captain and Olympic gold medalist, stepped down after an underwhelming spell, citing poor results despite significant efforts. His only win came against 1472 FC, leaving Edel FC in a precarious position in the NNL standings.
The club’s management swiftly moved to appoint Hamza Abara, a former Niger Tornadoes coach, to take charge of the team with immediate effect.
Abara’s first task will be a crucial fixture against Dakkada FC this weekend. The new coaching duo, including Ihekwoaba, has been given the mandate to revamp the team and deliver improved performances. Edel FC supporters in Awka are eagerly anticipating their unveiling and hoping for a fresh start under their leadership.
