Anambra FA: Ubah’s entry excites Umeh

NEWLY re-elected chairman of Anambra FA, Mike Umeh, is on cloud nine due to the caliber of men he has on the board to work with in the next four years.

  Umeh stated Sunday in Lagos that he is particularly impressed with the election of Ifeanyi Ubah as his vice chairman, noting that Ubah’s entry would bring transformation and take Anambra football to the next level.

“The election has been conducted, won and lost and I am very impressed with the quality and calibre of personalities that made the Exco. I won’t have asked for more. 

  “However, I am particularly impressed with the emergence of Chief Ifeanyi Ubah as my vice. We all know the stuff he is made of in this country.

  “Teaming up with Chief Ubah means that sports in Anambra State will soon witness tremendous transformation. As a game changer, I have no iota of doubt that he would bring the experiences and deft touches he applied in other areas of human endeavour to bear in running football in Anambra State. It is good news and good tidings to have him on board and I know we will never remain the same,” Umeh noted.

The new Anambra FA board also has seasoned football administrators like Friday Nwankwo Kujah, fondly called Soccer Ambassador, Barrister Ody Ikpeazu, who is the proprietor of famous soccer outfit, Ikpeazu Redoubtable and Mr. Victor Nwangwu, who served in the NFF appeals committee. 

Other members of the board include Prince Donatus Mbaezue, Mrs Cordelia Akanna, Harrison Okagbue and Ezenwankwo Francis.
