Imama Amapakabo (born 27 July 1969) is a Nigerian football manager and a former football player.
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.
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. Despite this, Sharks lost 1-0 due to an error from Amapakabo.
In 2016, Amapakabo helped Rangers International win the Nigerian league despite being one of the youngest head coaches in the league.
