    The Chairman of the Kano Pillars F.C. management team, Ali Nayara aka Mai Samba, was understandably delighted as his side delivered a commanding 3–0 victory over the visiting El-Kanemi Warriors F.C. of Borno State last Sunday in the ongoing Nigeria Premier Football League.1Diamond

    The emphatic victory, secured at the iconic Sani Abacha Stadium in Kano, highlighted Pillars’ superiority from kick-off to the final whistle, as they controlled the game with authority and left little room for their opponents to respond.

    Roared on by their passionate home supporters, the Sai Masu Gida dictated the rhythm of the contest, finished their opportunities with clinical precision, and pinned their opponents deep in their own half for much of the encounter.

    For Ali Nayara Mai Samba and the entire management team, the victory represented far more than a routine three points; it stood as a clear and emphatic statement of ambition in the ongoing Nigeria Premier Football League campaign.

    The result underlined Kano Pillars F.C.’ resolve to compete at the highest level, climb out of the relegation zone, and steadily rebuild confidence while restoring pride to their devoted supporters.

    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.
