The defeat means the UyoÃ‚Â outfit languishes in the relegation zone after garnering four points from six outings.

Despite their current coach Obuh is not throwing in the yet and revealed that his team will keep working towards getting the desired results.

Ã¢Â€ÂœEven if I am not under pressure, I have to give myself the pressure because most times we expect to see a win,Ã¢Â€Â he told theÃ‚Â NPFL website.

Ã¢Â€ÂœMore especially in [in the game against Sunshine Stars] that should have been, at worst, a draw, but this is the way it has been.

Ã¢Â€ÂœWe will continue fighting. We will continue working. The season is still fresh. This is the sixth game out of 38 games.

Ã¢Â€ÂœSo, we still have 32 games to finish. When we get back home we should start winning because we just need to start winning.Ã¢Â€Â

Akwa United would be hoping to end their winless streak when they welcome Adamawa United to the Godswill Akpabio Stadium on Sunday.
