He said, “It has been a very good season but I am not satisfied. However, we will ensure we will the Super Six so that we can realize our ambition of playing in the Champions League.

“I will be the most experienced league coach at the Super Six having attended the competition most times among the other coaches that will be there. I also have good players who are on the same page with me.

“We have had the support of the Edo State Sports Council led by Amadin Enabulele, while the state government have also given us strong financial backing. We will go to the Super Six to do everyone proud.”

The coach noted that running the full league would have been the ideal format but noted that the Nigeria Football Federation must have opted for the abridged league due to challenges that teams might face in the course of traveling around the country.
