“It’s been a tradition, that why people say Kano Pillars are toast of other clubs. We are fell happy that the boys are doing well and we are all out to show appreciation and that why the deputy governor boosted the players.

“We are going to do our best. Of course, all we need is prayers. The boys are ready for the first leg match billed for Saturday.
