Coach Kennedy Boboye has been linked with troubled MFM FC after parting ways with reigning Nigeria Professional Football League champions Akwa United following strings of poor results.
It will be noted that Akwa United in a statement issued Sunday night confirmed the exit of Boboye from the club and wished him the best in future endeavours.

The former Sunshine Stars, Remo Stars and Plateau United coach quit his role after Akwa United’s goalless draw at home against Heartland FC on match-day 12 in Uyo – their third successive draw at home in six matches.
“I want to thank everybody in the Akwa United family for the time I have stayed in the team.
“But I think it is time to move forward, when the team is not doing well it is the coach that faces the problems. I have just decided to stay out, for the team to move forward.
“Thanks very much for the time given to me to work here,” Boboye said.
Boboye who took over from Coach John Obuh in December 2019, led Akwa United to their first NPFL title last season but has failed to replicate that form after twelve rounds of matches this season.
This season, Akwa United have managed only four victories, five draws and three defeats, leaving the club eighth on the log with 17 points from 12 games.
MFM FC are rooted at the bottom of the table with two wins from 12 games and has earned 7 points so far.
