Kwara United Suspends Technical Adviser Tunde Abdulrahman

Kwara United technical adviser Tunde Abdulrahman has been suspended indefinitely by the llorin-based top flight side.

Rhoda Ajiboye, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Sports and Youth Development, announced the indefinite suspension of the former Wikki Tourists gaffer on Monday in llorin after a brief meeting with the management and technical crew of the side.

Supersport.com gathered from an official of the side, Olayinka Owolewa, that Ajiboye asked the chief coach, Tunde Sanni, to take over the affairs of the team.


She noted that the suspension became necessary in view of the poor run of form of the team recently.

The ministry's top shot added that all the coaches have been placed on half salaries while charging the management to rise to the occasion as no act of negligence will be entertained from them henceforth.

Ajiboye pledged the state government's resolve to tighten loose ends in the side during the next transfer window.

Ajiboye charged the players to give their best as she maintained that the government is working round the clock to ensure they do not lack anything to make them succeed as the season progresses.

Sanni's first assignment will be Wednesday’s Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) match day 18 clash at newcomers FC Ifeanyiubah at the Rojenny Stadium in Oba.

Abdulrahman's greatest undoing must have been the 0-1 home loss to Sharks in a match day 17 tie on Sunday.

The Harmony Boys are 17th on the 20-team Nigerian top flight log on 16 points, but with a game in hand against Warri Wolves in llorin.
