“I have watched the lads played this season and I must say they did a fine job, most especially against Enyimba FC in Aba”
“We are putting everything in place for the team to secure a premier league ticket next season in the Nigeria National League (NNL) because Niger Tornadoes is an elite football club.
“The damage has been done before we took up the office and we did everything we could to get out the club out of the relegation”
