There is trouble in paradise at the home of champions Tigers, who are failing to get things right this season.

Tigers' Lucky Kakuva resigned on Friday following his club's dismissal showing in the MTC Namibia Premier League.

The 2015/16 premier league champions have struggled to hit top gear and this has resulted in them lingering at the bottom half of the league table.

The club's poor form once again showed when they were beaten by Tura Magic 0-2 on Thursday night at the Sam Nujoma Stadium.

In a statement issued on Friday, Kakuva said his resignation comes in the wake of the poor performance by the club since the league kicked off.

“Dear colleagues, I have decided to resign from Tigers with immediate effect. It was a pleasure working with you indeed.

“My hope and desire was to take the team to a great level. This project didn't work for me. Let me take this opportunity to wish you all the best for the season,” his statement reads.

Tigers FC senior management could not be reached for comment over the weekend.

Meanwhile, Namibia Premier League's Blue Waters and Eleven Arrows played to a 1-1 stalemate over the weekend.

In other action, Life Fighters failed to capitalise on the home-ground advantage as they bowed 1-2 to Orlando Pirates at the Mokati Stadium on Saturday.

Tsumeb's Chief Santos proved that their internal problems will not overshadow their performance as they defeated Young Chiefs 1-0 at the Oscar Norich Stadium on Saturday.

In other action last week, African Stars were held by Civics to a goalless draw at the Sam Nujoma Stadium on Friday night.
