Former Super Eagles coach Daniel Amokachi has resigned as the Technical Adviser of Lobi Stars, leaving the team in a precarious position at the bottom of the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) table.
Amokachi’s resignation comes after a series of disappointing performances, with Lobi Stars managing only 22 points from 24 matches this season. The team’s poor form has left them fighting to avoid relegation as the league season progresses.
Assistant Coach Tar Akombo will now take charge of the team, starting with a crucial NPFL match against second-placed Shooting Stars in Ibadan later today. The match is pivotal for Lobi Stars as they aim to turn their season around.
Off the pitch, Lobi Stars have faced additional challenges, including the inability to secure a permanent home ground. The team has been forced to play away from their traditional base at Aper Aku Stadium in Makurdi for nearly three years due to ongoing renovations.
Amokachi’s departure marks a significant moment for Lobi Stars as they seek to regroup and improve their performance in the league.
