Warriors Tested: Dakkada FC Set to Face Igbajo FC on Friday
Dakkada FC will resume their Nigeria National League (NNL) campaign on Friday, January 24, 2025, with a clash against Igbajo FC at the Uyo Township Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:00 pm.
The Uyo-based club, who were on a bye in the previous round of NNL fixtures, used the break to engage Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) side Abia Warriors FC in a friendly match last Sunday, January 19, 2025. The encounter ended in a 1-1 draw, with Coach Emmanuel Ntuk’s side giving a commendable performance against the top-flight team.
Dakkada FC dominated large spells of the friendly, creating more scoring opportunities and impressing their home supporters. Despite being unable to secure a victory, the spirited performance has boosted their confidence ahead of the crucial league match against Igbajo FC.
The club has already notified fans of the adjusted schedule for the NNL week seven match, which will be played on Friday instead of their regular Saturday home game slot. Supporters are expected to turn out in large numbers to cheer the team as they aim to return to winning ways in the league.
Dakkada FC will be counting on their recent form and the home advantage to secure maximum points and climb higher in the NNL standings.
