He has however expressed his concerns that his team is not fully prepared for the upcoming season, citing the need for improved fitness and coordination.
Speaking after a 2-0 win over Barau FC in the Gusau/Ahlan Preseason Tournament, he attributed the setbacks in preparations to delays caused by national protests, which impacted the team’s training and morale. The new NPFL season will commence on Saturday, August 31.
