Former Super Eagles goalkeeper, Ike Shorunmu will take temporary charge of Abia Warriors for the remainder of the season, DAILY POST reports.
Shorunmu was directed to take charge of the team by the club’s management following the suspension of head coach, Imama Amapakabo, and his assistant, Bethel Orji.
Amapakabo, and Orji were ordered to steer clear of all club engagements following Abia Warriors’ 2-0 home defeat to Kun Khalifat FC on Sunday.
The defeat effectively ended the club’s chances of securing a continental ticket.
DAILY POST recalled Abia Warriors also lost to Ahudiyannem FC in the semi-final of the Abia State FA Cup.
The Umuahia club will be away to Warri Wolves in their last game of the season.
