Ranchers Bees have ended their association with technical adviser Usman Abd’Allah after a disappointing opening to the 2026/27 Nigeria Premier Football League season, Completesports.com reports.
The Kaduna-based club confirmed the decision after Abd’Allah’s final game in charge ended in a 3-1 defeat by Shooting Stars on Friday. The match was played at the Lekan Salami Stadium, Adamasingba, in Ibadan.
Abd’Allah spent 115 days with Ranchers Bees after being appointed the club’s head coach. During his time in charge, the former Enyimba and Kano Pillars manager oversaw nine league matches, recording two wins, two draws and five defeats.
The result against Shooting Stars leaves Ranchers Bees 18th in the NPFL table. They have collected eight points from their first nine matches of the campaign.
The club are expected to appoint an interim coach following Abd’Allah’s departure. That coach will take charge of the team for their next league fixture against Doma United.
Abd’Allah’s exit comes after Ranchers Bees were unable to build momentum at the start of the season, with their latest defeat extending a run that has left them near the bottom of the table.
