It was gathered that the top chieftains of the club are in favour of different candidates who they think capable of leading the club.

The club’s Technical Adviser position was declared vacant after the management refused to offer the former coach Samson Unuanel new contract.

Information from the team’s camp revealed that coach Tunde Abdulrahman, Tunde Sanni and Abdullahi Biffo are the leading candidates among those that were interviewed on Monday for the vacant job.

A source told SportingLife that some group favored Abdulrahman, others wanted Sanni while another group considered Biffo as a right candidate.

Our source also revealed that the management want Abdulrahman as Technical Adviser while Biffo as chief coach.

The latest development, it was gathered, has made the management to put on hold the process of declaring any candidate while seeking government’s help on the issue.

“The situation is taking another dimension now because three candidates are in the fore-front now. And all of them have backers in the club. After the interview on Monday some people want Abdulrahman, others want Biffo and Sanni. I think at this moment State government need to intervene to resolve the issue,” an inside source told SportingLife.

 Meanwhile, some members of the former technical crew have petition the state government over their sack by the management.

SportingLife gathered that the aggrieved members submitted their letter at the government house on Monday while the management received the copy on Tuesday.

The coaches alleged in the letter that their sack was an attempt by the management to cover up some anomalies happened in the club thereby making them a scapegoat.
