A former Super Eagles captain, Ben Akwuegbu, has donated a brand new Toyota Hiace bus to his Nationwide League One bound club.

The Ben Akwuegbu FC acquired an existing Division One League slot from 2023, and the Korea/Japan 2002 Super Eagles player deemed it fit to ease the team’s stress as regards going for training and travelling for away matches to outside Jos. "Transportation to training and matches is one major challenge faced by some NLO teams, as it's a bit expensive when a team has to charter a bus for matches," said Akwuegbu. "Several hours are lost when teams hire cheap rickety bus and in the end breaks down on transit. “Also, we all know that our roads are now a serious death trap and a haven for robbers, so with this brand new bus, the club has overcome such challenges." Lending his voice on the gesture, General Manager of the club Rotimi Adeniji couldn't hide his delight with the development as he thanked the former Super Eagles star for the gesture. "This is one step in the right direction for the club's progress and poor transportation plans, are one thing that clubs in Nigeria envisage. "Now that we have a brand-new as part of our transportation option, we can now shift focus on other core objectives set by the club management as we aim to maintain our top cadre status of the Nationwide League One."
