It came as a surprise when Imama emerged as arguably the most popular local head coach in the Nigeria Football League. This is because little, if anything, was known about him aside the fact that he had a short stint with Eyimba of Aba, but his recent achievement with Enugu Rangers brought him back into the spotlight.

With this achievement in consideration, the Nigerian Football Federation offered him a job as an assistant to the former acting coach of the Super Eagles, Salisu Abubakar, a job he held on to. He was also later asked to replace the former Eyimba manager, Salisu Yusuf, after his dollar scandal in 2018.

Recently though, Imama had fell out of favour with the Nigerian football faithful, having failed to get Nigeria to qualify for the much anticipated Tokyo 2020 after the home-based Super Eagles’ performances at the CHAN tournament ended in shambles.
