The Chief Executive Officer of Enugu Rangers, Paul Chibuzor, has been asked to vacate his office in a move that will set the tone for a massive clearout at the underachieving Nigeria Premier League club.
Sources in Enugu said Tuesday that a letter from the Enugu State Government has been despatched to Chibuzor to quit after four seasons during which ‘The Flying Antelopes’ failed to win anything of note.
Early this week, the CEO was making frantic efforts to overturn this decision, but a top source informed MTNFootball.com that these moves have so far come to nought as one of the contacts Chibuzor was alleged to have approached gave him cold shoulder inside the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in Enugu.
The fear of the unknown has therefore gripped top officials and coaches at the club that they are also in line for the sack.
The biggest undoing of the Chibuzor-led board, it was learnt, was that they have failed to get the club to play major international football in the four years they have been in office.
Rangers finished sixth in the NPL this past season and have qualified for the semi-finals of the sub-regional WAFU Cup, which will be played in Lome, Togo, from December 9.
Rangers spokesman Foster Chime said he could not confirm or deny the directive issued to the CEO.
“I am not aware of such but like you know, this is a government club and they may decide to take any action they deem fit for the club at any time. It may be possible and it may not be possible,” he said.
