About this trap
Abakaliki FC, backed by the state government, plays home league games at Pa Ngele Oruta Township Stadium. The 2025-26 Nigeria National League main round ran from November to April, so do not expect league football in the middle of the year. Some of the club's matches are also played away, such as a final-round game in Calabar in April 2026. Ask your host or the club for the next home date and kick-off time before you head to the stadium.
