Enyimba moved to second position behind Insurance in Group A after recording a slim 1-0 victory against El-Kanemi in Maiduguri.

The People’s Elephant must secure at least a win from their remaining two games to guarantee a place in the Super Six.

Remo Stars defeated Akwa United 1-0 in Ikenne to boost their chances of making the Super Six.

Junior Nduka scored the winning goal from the spot late in the first half.
