Abia Warriors coach Imama Amapakabo expects his team to be among the title challengers in the upcoming season.

Abia Warriors ended the 2020-2021 campaign in a disappointing 14th position, but the former Super Eagles assistant coach believes his side can make big progress in the coming campaign.

Abia Warriors defeated highly rated Aba-based non-league side Uchecaria FC 5-1 in a pre-season game on Wednesday.

Asked about his target this upcoming season Imama Amapakabo said :

“We are going to be having 20 league teams, Nigeria is not like other climes where you have a three, four, or five horse races.”

“Every team have got a chance to win the title including Abia Warriors so we will be gunning for the league title so let the league begin,” he said.
