Ikorodu City Head Coach Bright Ozebagbe Resigns Following Plateau United Defeat

Bright Ozebagbe, head coach of Ikorodu City Football Club, has stepped down from his position following the team's disappointing 2-1 defeat to Plateau United in Jos on Sunday. The club confirmed his resignation in an official statement on Monday.

Ozebagbe's decision to resign comes after a difficult start to the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) season, in which Ikorodu City has struggled to find form. Under his leadership this season, the team has played five matches, recording no wins, one draw, and four losses. This poor run of results has left Ikorodu City with just one point out of a possible 15, positioning them near the bottom of the NPFL table.

Despite high hopes at the start of the season, the team's performance failed to meet expectations, and Ozebagbe’s departure signals a need for change. Ikorodu City will now look to appoint a new head coach as they aim to turn their fortunes around and fight for survival in the NPFL.

Ikorodu City now faces the challenge of rebuilding momentum under new leadership as they prepare for upcoming fixtures. Fans and players alike will hope that a fresh start can revive their campaign in the highly competitive NPFL.
