8 teams from Abia and Imo State will slug it out against each other on Monday in a battle to claim a sum of one million Naira winning prize at the maiden edition of the Kanu Nwankwo U-19 Inter-State Football tournament.


The organisers of the event, along with former Super Eagles forward and Sporting Director of Enyimba Football Club of Aba, Ifeanyi Ekweme, said the Kanu Nwankwo U-19 Inter-State tournament would produce budding stars who could become world-beaters.

"The venues are Abia Poly School Field and Enyimba International Stadium, with special recognition to His Excellency, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti OFR, Executive Governor of Abia State."
