The management of Abia Warriors Football Club of Umuahia has taken fresh measures to rejuvenate the club’s medical team, a club’s official said on Saturday.
The club’s Media Officer, Chigozie Nwosu, told the NNA in Umuahia that this was for them to be able to respond to emergencies.
“We know the essence of being compliant in the area of medical facilities, equipment and personnel, especially during home matches in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL),’’ he said.
Nwosu said part of the measures was a collaboration with the Abia State Passengers Integrated Manifest and Safety Scheme.
He said the arrangement would take effect after Sunday’s match between the club and visiting Adamawa United FC of Yola.
Nwosu said a functional ambulance with oxygen had been hired from the Nigerian Red Cross for Sunday’s encounter.
