Career

After being part of the Nigeria squad that won the inaugural FIFA U-16 World Championship in 1985, Amapakabo's parents stopped being opposed to him playing football.[1]

During a game against Nigerdock while playing for Sharks, he stopped a game to "take a toilet break" but was actually trying to ease the pressure on his team.[2] Despite this, Sharks lost 1-0 due to an error from Amapakabo.[2]

In 2015/16, Amapakabo helped Rangers International win the Nigerian league despite being one of the youngest head coaches in the league.
