By Niyi Busari

Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side, Enyimba Football Club of Aba, Sunday evening have asked their Head Coach Usman Abdallah, to temporarily step side from his duties with immediate effect.

Meanwhile, the assistant coach to Usman Abdallah, Fatai Osho will be in charge of the team for now.

The People's Elephants who are the current Nigerian champions are not also finding it rosy this term following series of poor results.

The board of the Aba Millionaires were furious with Abdallah, after they lost 1-0 to Paradou AC of Algeria, in the CAF Confederations Cup.

Officials of the Aba-based club made the decision after the team was whitewashed 4-0 by Plateau United in the NPFL Week 12 contest on Sunday.

Despite the defeat the performance on the day was unimpressive leaving fans of the 8 times champions of the Nigeria Professional Football League wondering

Enyimba will on Sunday host Paradou AC in the second leg Fixture of the CAF Confederations Cup at the Aba Township Stadium.
