The release stated that the appointments take immediate effect.
Ezeaku, a lawyer who just returned to the country after completing his studies and earning UEFA and FIFA Masters certificates in club management, was the club’s team manager when they won the NPFL and Aiteo cups in 2016 and 2018 after over three decades of waiting.
His appointment is seen by many fans of the seven-time Nigerian league champions as one that will help return the club to its past reputation as one of the top clubs in Nigeria and Africa.
