Maikaba On Plateau Utd Radar

Maikaba On Plateau Utd Radar By Admin Barring any last minute change of decision, Plateau United may be signing Abdul Maikaba, the Akwa United manager. It has been revealed that the Peace Boys are in talks with the Akwa United head coach as they seek a replacement for Kennedy Boboye who left the club recently following the expiration of his two-year contract. Maikaba has been in charge of Akwa United for the past two seasons and led the Promise Keepers to win the Federation Cup last year. He is rumoured to be on his way to Plateau United with his number two at Akwa United, Aliyu Zubairu, already installed as Wikki Tourists head coach. Maikaba, who is regarded as one of the finest coaches in the Nigeria top flight at the moment, is also an assistant coach with Nigeria U-20 team, the Flying Eagles. He made a name for himself during his time with modest Nigeria Professional Football League side, Wikki Tourists, who despite their lean budget, played one of the most attractivefootball in the NPFL during his stint with them. Plateau United won the NPFL title for the first time last season under the tutelage of Boboye, but failed to assert themselves for a title this term. The Jos club have lost several of their key players to foreign clubs and are looking to get back on tracks with a new man in the saddle following Boboye’s departure.
