Posted : 04 May 2023

Former President of the Nigeria Football Association, now the Federation (NFA), Alhaji Ibrahim Galadima, has given credit to organizers of the Nationwide League One (NLO) for a near-perfect season kickoff.

ASN reports that Nigeria's third-tier amateur league, NLO, kicked off in Kano on Wednesday evening with a Kano Derby between Kano Pillars Jr. and arch-rival Kwankwasiyya FC at the Sani Abacha Stadium, which ended in a one-all draw to the delight of over 5,000 fans that caught a glimpse of the thriller and a star fixture of Match Day 1.

Galadima, the acting chairman of Kano Pillars, said after the game: "It's heartwarming that Kano hosted the NLO opening 2023 season fixture, which was between, and my presence at the game is my way of showing appreciation to the nation's third-tier league body for this honor."
