Abakaliki FC have pulled off another major coup in the transfer window with the official signing of highly skilled attacking midfielder Akuma Ndubisi, a move that immediately strengthens the team’s creative department ahead of the new NNL season.
The Ebonyi-based club, known as the Rice Boyz, announced the deal with excitement, describing the midfielder as a “game-changing addition” to their attacking structure.

Akuma arrives with a reputation for invention, precision, and calmness in possession. Over the years, he has built a name for himself as one of the most assured playmakers in the domestic circuit — admired for his pinpoint long passes, intelligent movement, and his ability to dictate the flow of a game from advanced midfield positions. He is expected to provide the kind of creativity the Rice Boyz desperately lacked last season.
Sources within Abakaliki FC revealed that the technical crew had identified Akuma months ago as their top target to spark the team’s attacking transitions.
His ability to break defensive lines with incisive passes, combined with his composure under pressure, made him a perfect fit for the club’s evolving tactical identity. Coaches believe his presence will not only elevate the team’s goal-scoring chances but also help younger players mature more quickly.
Fans in Ebonyi State have reacted with palpable enthusiasm, viewing Akuma’s arrival as a sign that the Rice Boyz intend to compete vigorously rather than merely participate in the NNL.
Many supporters have already begun predicting his potential assist tally for the coming season, with expectations running high that he will become the creative heartbeat of the team.
Club officials praised Akuma as a professional with the mentality and experience needed to guide Abakaliki FC to a new competitive level. They emphasised that his signing is part of a broader plan to rebuild the squad with players capable of delivering consistent performances.
With Akuma Ndubisi now officially unveiled, the Rice Boyz enter the new season with renewed optimism — and a midfield orchestrator ready to leave his mark.
