Lobi Stars Suspend Technical Adviser Abubakar Bala Mohammed

The Interim Management Committee of Lobi Stars Football Club has ordered the indefinite suspension of Technical Adviser Coach Abubakar Bala Mohammed following an emergency management meeting held on Monday.

In a statement issued after the meeting, the club’s management cited poor performance as the reason for the decision. Lobi Stars have recorded seven points from six matches, earning just 7 of a possible 18 points, and currently sit sixth out of eight clubs in their group.

The suspended Technical Adviser has been directed to hand over duties immediately to the club’s Chief Coach, John Onuh (Abacha), who will take charge of the team on an interim basis.

The management is expected to review the team’s situation further as Lobi Stars seek to improve results and climb the table in the ongoing campaign.
