Coach Hamza who spoke with ThisNigeria through the media officer of the club, Usman Garba Kuta said his players are aware of the importance of the match in their title campaign as anything less than victory is unacceptable.
He hinged his expectation for the match on the level preparedness his players have undergone ahead of the game which is coming after their encouraging week three outting away at Enugu Rangers International, though they narrowly lost by 2-1.
“We have put the recent defeat by Rangers international of Enugu behind us and we are focused on this weekend match against Bayelsa United. We are very much prepared and ready for them.
“Certainly, It’s not going to be an easy match,, Bayelsa United have often proven to be a solid side, we respect them, we are not leaving any stone unturned to ensure that the team (Niger Tornadoes) grab the three maximum points in Kaduna,” he said.

Meanwhile, a Minna based football enthusiast, Mallam Sulaiman Farinwata, has charged the IKon Allah Boys, to go all out and win the match as he believes they have all it takes as a team to perform creditably against any of NPFL teams and emerge champions.
