NPFL: Kano Pillars Set To Appoint Paul Offor's Replacement

By Niyi Busari

Kano Pillars will soon announce a new Head Coach after dismissing Paul Offor's appointment, BSNSports.com.ng can report.

Offor, 35, in July 2024 was unveiled as the club’s new manager on a two-year deal, replacing Abdul Maikaba but has been sacked even without leading the team in a match.

The sack is contained in a release signed by Pillars’ Chairman Alhaji Muhammad Umar the club appreciated Offor’s positive attitude throughout discussion leading up to the disengagement.

Offor was appointed by the former board that was dissolved after its tenure elapsed.

According to Alhaji Umar, a new technical adviser will soon be hired to take over the club.

He said that the selection process for the new gaffer is underway.

Kano Pillars ended last season in the bottom half of the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) and were looking to restrategise after a disappointing campaign. The club had high hopes for Offor’s appointment, but it seems that the state government’s intervention has put an end to those plans.
