In a major shake up, the Board of Lobi Stars Football Club of Makurdi in Benue State, North-Central Nigeria has appointed former Super Eagles coach, Daniel Amokachi, as the new Technical Adviser of the club.
This comes shortly after the Board relieved Eugene Agagbe of his position as Chief Coach with immediate effect.
A statement by the club’s Head of Media, Uja Emmanuel, the decision follows the Board’s review of Agagbe’s failure to meet a five-match win target, managing only one victory while losing three.
According to the Lobi Stars media head, Amokachi’s appointment also takes immediate effect, as the club seeks to revitalise its strategy and improve performance on the field.
Additionally, he said all backroom staff have been relieved of their duties and instructed to reapply if they wish to continue with the club.
They have been asked to hand over all club property in their possession to the club’s secretary immediately.
