Anambra FA Caretaker Committee Chairman Resigns, Eyes Chairmanship Position.

By Emediong Silver

The constitution of the Anambra FA caretaker committee literally stopped the ambition of Senator representing Anambra South zone, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who is also the proprietor of Nigerian professional FC Ifeanyi Ubah to secure a second term in office.

Official reports have it that the distinguished chairman of the Anambra State Football Association (FA) Caretaker Committee, Emeka Okeke, has resigned.

The reason for his surprised resignation is that he now wants to contest for the chairmanship position proper. Announcing his decision to quit on Tuesday, Okeke, the son of prominent transporter, Godwin Ubaka Okeke of the GUO Motors Limited fame, is a medical doctor and owner of Aspire FC.

“Having been involved in the repositioning of football in our dear state, as well as know what is needed to make it better, I, therefore, deem it fit to resign my position as the chairman of the Anambra Football Caretaker committee."

“I believe it is in the best interest of football development and a good decision for me."

The election of the substantive Anambra FA board will hold before November 2, 2020.
