The management of the club then declared the position once occupied by Makaba vacant and invited applications from suitable candidates to fill the vacant position.

He said “The committee that is looking into the tenure of the former coach is going to submit its report on Thursday and the management will hold a world press conference. we are looking for a new Technical Adviser and good players.”

Meanwhile, a former Enyimba, Wikki Tourists and Katsina United coach, Usman Abdallah, is favoured to emerge as the next coach of Kano Pillars.
