The General Manager of the club, Okey Kpaluku, told newsmen in Port Harcourt that Dokubo’s sack was with immediate effect.

He said that the club’s assistant coach, Festus Allen, will take charge of the team till mid season, when a technical adviser will be appointed.

‘’He is a Rivers man and also has experience having coached at 3SC and ABS football clubs previously,” he said.
