Osas Idehen and Josiah Maduabuchi both scored for Enyimba, with Moses Ogaga converting a cross for Pillars.

Enyimba went into the game needing just a draw to match Rangers, whose last triumph was in 1984, but it took until five minutes before the break for them to open the scores, Idehen the man to find the headway.

Pillars, hunting for only their second ever title, matched the five-time winners and threatened with record-breaking league scorer Ahmed Musa a constant danger.

"He is a good player, and I must confess that Pillars are playing very well," Enyimba Media Officer Tonnext Chukwu admitted at half-time.

Despite Pillars' efforts, it was Maduabuchi, who has impressed all season in the blue of Enyimba, who got the second goal on 75 minutes.

But still Pillars refused to roll over, and were duly rewarded when Musa crossed for Moses Ogaga to finish and provide a nerve-wracking finish to a cracking encounter.

I m so dissapointed by you Nigerians, are these Enyimba guys really your champions? These guys are now trailing 4-0 to Zambia's former champions who have had a very bad season this year. You guys cant be serious, Zanaco are doing really badly in the Zambian league and we didnt give the much chance against what we thought was a powerful ENYIMBA.
