Enyimba International are now level on points with Enugu Rangers on the Nigeria Premier League table as the Aba Landlords on Sunday evening recorded an emphatic 2-0 victory over their fierce Oriental rivals.

Former Enyimba gaffer, Coach Okey Emordi, now with Rangers had promised to surprise the Peoples Elephants in his first return to Aba since after joining the flying antelopes but it was not to be for coach Emordi who was voted Africa’s best coach in 2005.
