The reported incident comes as Enyimba continue to struggle for results at the beginning of the 2026/27 NPFL season.

The People's Elephant have lost their opening three matches of the campaign, leaving the Aba-based club without a point and under pressure to quickly turn their fortunes around.

Enyimba will now have to manage the situation off the pitch while also focusing on their upcoming league fixture as they seek their first points of the season and a return to stability.
