Boboye, who was in charge when Akwa United won the league title in 2021, will have to deal with keeping the Akwa Ibon State-owned club top of the charts in Nigeria.

In order to maintain its topflight status, Akwa United is currently 19th in the 20-team standings, which calls for a change.

Before the second half of the 2024/2025 league season, the club is the second NPFL club to change coaches.

In December, nine-time champions, Enyimba International FC, appointed Stanley Eguma, a seasoned tactician and one of the most respected figures in Nigerian football, as their new head coach.
