Finidi, a former Nigeria international, came under intense criticism after Enyimba finished in fifth position in his first season in charge of the club.

The gaffer recognized the role Yema played in the team’s overall success.

“When Enyimba signed me in my first season, I wanted Yema, but it was difficult. I needed someone who we think football alike. He always challenged me, put me on my toes and wasn’t scared to be expressive,” he told Elegbete TV.
