Mohammed Babaganaru has officially resigned as the head coach of Akwa United following the team’s 1-1 draw against Bendel Insurance at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium. The announcement comes amidst a challenging start to the 2024/2025 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season for the Promise Keepers.
Akwa United currently find themselves in the relegation zone after a series of underwhelming performances. Babaganaru’s resignation highlights the increasing pressure on the team to reverse their fortunes in what has been a difficult campaign.
The former coach's departure adds to the list of managerial changes in the NPFL this season. Notably, Kennedy Boboye, Monday Odigie, and Bright Ozebagbe have also left their coaching roles with Sunshine Stars, Bendel Insurance, and Ikorodu City FC, respectively.
Babaganaru, who had been tasked with steering the Promise Keepers to greater heights, departs amidst growing concerns over the team’s ability to secure their top-flight status. His resignation reflects the urgency for Akwa United to regroup and find solutions to their current struggles.
The management of Akwa United is now expected to act swiftly in appointing a replacement who can reinvigorate the squad and navigate the challenges of the ongoing season. The Promise Keepers face a crucial period ahead as they fight to climb out of the relegation zone.
