NNL’s Promotion Of Four Clubs Excites Christian Chukwu

The promotion of four clubs: Kada City, Bendel Insurance, Remo stars and Gombe United from Nigeria National League (NNL) to Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) has been described as victory for the senior national league.
Former super Eagles coach Christian Chukwu, f told newsmen that the promotion meant that the NPFL would soon return to its enviable standard.
“Playing in the NNL is entirely different because it is a strange terrain for us, it is a whole new different structure and procedures,” he said.
Oshode told newsmen that the players were persuaded to take bold steps to secure their rightful place in the top flight; in order to drive home their qualities in the heart of their fans.
“While we are in NNL, we told the players that they can only be reckoned with if they are playing top flight football because that is where they have the market value.
“If the players want to prove their worth, it is in the top flight football and not the second tier and the players took upon themselves the challenge to achieve the result.
“Now that we are in the NPFL, our target will be different from when we are in the NNL. Our target now is to see that we remain in the NPFL and fight for our place.
“We will do everything possible to prevent going back to relegation or fighting relegation battles, we want to make our fans proud of us,” he said. (NAN)
