Kano Pillars celebrate victory as skipper calls for fan support
The skipper of Kano Pillars, Rabiu Ali, expressed his enthusiasm following the team’s impressive 1-0 away victory over Bendel Insurance in Benin on Saturday.
The win, secured during match day 11 of the Nigeria Premier Football League, featured Ali scoring the decisive goal from the penalty spot.
Ali, a 44-year-old midfielder, was thrilled with the team’s performance and emphasized the importance of fan support back home. “We thank God for the victory, and the support from our fans was overwhelming. It felt like we were playing right in Kano,” he remarked.
As Kano Pillars prepares to return to the Sani Abacha Stadium this weekend to face Heartland, Ali urged supporters to accept any outcomes.
“I urge all our supporters to accept whatever results we achieve. Football is about winning, drawing, or losing, and we need to embrace all outcomes as true fans,” he said.
