It was, however, a home game for the Ochendo Boys, while the Peoples Elephant played as the away team.
Flying Eagles winger Clinton Jephta put Enyimba ahead after only nine minutes, only for the home team to draw level in the 26th minute through Adejoh Ojonugwa.
The next couple of minutes bore no fruit, and the game remained all square in Aba.
Enyimba now has 20 points from a dozen matches.
