In his second spell at Kano Pillars, Coach Baba Ganaru has warned critics and foes of the defending league champions not to write off their chances of bouncing back to give a strong challenge for the title.

Pillars hopes of defending their title seem a tall order given that they are nine points adrift of leaders Sunshine Stars and Enyimba, who both have 36 points.

But in a season where the prevailing theme has been one of unpredictability, Ganaru, who has been appointed by the club’s management  to oversee  team, has promised to return Pillars back to winning ways.

Speaking from Kano, Ganaru said “I am happy to be back at Kano Pillars. I am satisfied with the terms offered and promise to do my best to return this great club to its pride of place in the country.

The journey is not yet over and I will do my best to ensure that we finish well and make our fans happy”. Ganaru will lead his charges out for tomorrow’s home clash with Lobi Stars at the Sani Abacha Stadium, Kano.
