Following Nigeria Professional Football League champions, Rangers International FC’s poor results posted in the NPFL and continental football competition since the start of the season, the board has asked Coach Imama Amapakabo to step aside.
Director, Public Relations of Rangers International, Forster Chime confirmed this development after Rangers were forced to a 2-2 draw by visiting Zesco United of Zambia in a CAF Confederation Cup game in Enugu on Sunday.
“Rangers management has asked Imama Amapakabo to step aside for security reasons after Sunday’s first leg CAF Confederation Cup play-off against Zesco United of Zambia in Enugu,” Chime said.
He hinted that the club’s management are due to meet on Monday to deliberate on the next step of action to save the club from plunging into doom.
Speaking on the reports that he was attacked at the end of the game against Zesco yesterday, Amapakabo denied it, saying that:”I walked out from the same gate that I came in and went and drove my car away. Nobody touched me’’.
