Enyimba International have emerged as champions of the Nigeria Premier League for the seventh time after they secured the needed point in their 0-0 draw against hitherto title contenders, Warri Wolves.

The match played on Sunday at the Aba International stadium home of Enyimba, saw the Aba Elephants play the most of the clash with a man down.

Otor Ezekiel was given a red card but Enyimba held their nerves to end their five year wait for another League crown after last wining in 2010.

With 69 points from 37 games, Enyimba are sure no team can catch up with them when the last set of games are played next weekend.
