Recall that while he was the governor of Abia state between 1999 and 2007, Enyimba of Aba won the Nigeria Professional Football League five times ( 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, and 2007). The local club also became the first Nigerian side to win the CAF Champions League back to back in 2003 and 2004 and the CAF Super Cup in 2004 and 2005.
The 60-year-old politician stated that by buying a stake at the club, he is to ensure that the Gunners win the Champions League and the Premier League back-to-back as Enyimba did.
He wrote:
Our success with Enyimba football club between 2000-2007 has continuously increased my passion for football. As the pillar of sports in Africa , I am considering an investment in football and I will buy 35 percent stake in Arsenal FC.
Our target is to lift the Champions League and Premier League back to back as we did with Enyimba.
