Last season, the new Pillars boss was in charge of the now-relegated Sporting Lagos FC. Paul Offor famously guided the Lagos boys to promotion but was sacked towards the end of the season, a move which may have contributed to the club’s unfortunate relegation at the end of the 2023/2024 NPFL season.

He arrives in Kano Pillars a club with very rich history and will look to make his mark in Kano.
