Christian Obi, Nwachukwu sue for peace among Imo football stakeholders

Posted : 27 February 2024

Heartland FC Technical Adviser, Christian Obi, and club General Manager, Promise Nwachukwu, have sought forgiveness from football stakeholders in Imo State.

Obi, the club head coach, expressed the need for peace among football stakeholders to work towards the progress of Heartland FC and make concerted efforts to save the club from its precarious situation.

The former Flying Eagles goalkeeper emphasized during a peace parley with management, technical crew, and other stakeholders before the game with Plateau United in Awka that discordant tones hinder progress.

He urged everyone to set aside their differences and prioritize peace in Heartland FC, stating that he has forgiven anyone he felt had betrayed him in the past. He expects those who may feel offended by him to also forgive for the sake of Heartland FC and Imo State.

"I have called this peace meeting to ask for the forgiveness of all that I have offended, whether knowingly or otherwise. We must all work for the progress of the club because the club is bigger than any of us. I expect all those I have offended to forgive me," Obi said during the peace parley.

"I have put a call across to all those who were unable to come for the parley to forget about the things of the past and let's forge ahead. We want our supporters' Club to come for our game with Plateau United and come and support us. The management members who are not with us in Awka are also called upon to attend the game. We must work as a united front to help Heartland FC succeed. Our march towards surviving relegation starts now, and we must stick together to achieve that goal."

All the management members, technical crew, and other officials at the peace parley took turns to speak, and they all agreed to forgive and forget past issues to ensure the club gets out of the relegation zone.

The General Manager, Promise Nwachukwu, commended the decision of the head coach, Christian Obi, to call for the peace parley. He implored everyone in the club to work towards peace and give it a chance. Nwachukwu also stated that he has forgiven all those who maligned his name in the interest of peace and called on the supporters and fans of the club to come cheer Heartland FC to victory on Wednesday in Awka.
