Madu won the Owerri club promotion back to the top flight in six months after they were relegated.
A former player of the club, Madu made the headlines this month when he accused “my enemies” of using the players to get him fired.
“My players did not play this match for me or the club,” he blasted after they lost 3-0 at MFM FC in Lagos.
“They played this match like ‘accord’ (fixed) match.
“People have penetrated my team to destroy me. My enemies have penetrated into my players to destroy me and they have succeeded.”
Interestingly, Madu was named NPFL Coach for February by the League Bloggers.
