    Lack of funds: Kano Pillars to miss their Rivers United match?

    Sani YusifBy Sani YusifMarch 7, 2024

    A day before their away National Professional Football League match against Rivers United Football Club of Port Harcourt, Kano Pillars Football Club was still at home, a situation which confused stakeholders in the state.

    Investigation by this site unfolded that the team which was normally supposed to be very far on its way to Port Harcourt by now is still at the premises of Kano State Sports Commission waiting for funds to start its journey.

    The team was supposed to start its trip by 6.00 am this morning  but at the time of writing this report (10.55am) the players, their officials and their buses were still waiting at the sports commission, an action which many described as a moral killer.

    Our findings also revealed that it was the failure of the sports ministry to source and provides needed funds for the trip that is clogging the wheel of the team’s plans.

    Details…

    I was a staff of the then Triumph Newspapers, with keen interest in sports journalism which drove me to the unit where I was supported and oiled in the dynamics of modern sports reporting by my mentor/friend, Sani Zaria, the then Group Sports Editor of the Triumph. And when he left in 1995, I tried to sustain the spirit against all odds with a column sportesye. But when The Triumph was closed, I was moved to Kano Polytechnic as a lecturer until my retirement last 3 years, which gives me time to return to what I know best , the recreation of the SPORTS EYE.
