Enyimba International have emerged as champions of the Nigeria Premier
League for the seventh time after they secured the needed point in
their 0-0 draw against hitherto title contenders ,Warri Wolves.
The match was played on Sunday at the Aba International stadium home of Enyimba.
The Aba Elephants who had to play the most of Sunday's clash with a
man down following the red card given to Otor Ezekiel held their
nerves to end their five year wait for another League crown after last
wining in 2010.
With 69 points from 37 games, Enyimba are sure no team can catch up
with them when the last set of games are played next weekend.
Before the latest acquisition, Enyimba won the title in 2001, 2002,
2003, 2005, 2007 and 2010. They were African Champions in 2003 and
2004. No other Nigerian club side has won the prestigious CAF
Champions League.
