.Vows to
make Savannah scorpions great again
Technical
Adviser of Gombe United coach Manu Garba (OON) has revealed that he turned down
money-spinning offers from top clubs in the Nigeria Professional Football
League (NPFL) to accept Gombe United deal as a way to contribute his part to
the success of the club.
The Golden
Eaglets coach made the revelation after signing a contractual agreement and
official unveiling at the Emerald Hotel, Gombe.
Garba assured
to work toward making the Savannah scorpions a title contender in the forthcoming
league with the support of the state government and all stake holders.
"I
declined lucrative offers from top premier league clubs like Ifeanyi Uba FC and
accepted Gombe United. As a son of the soil this is just to contribute my quota
towards the success of the club,” Garba said.
The General
Manager of the club, Alh. Salisu Ahmad Adviser said the target set for Garba is
to win a continental ticket for the club at the end of the season while
assuring that he and his board will not interfere in the technical crew job.
He applauded
Governor Dankwambo for the passion he has for the club and his relentless
financial support to the club.
However, the former
Executive Chairman of the State Sports Commission, Malam Farouk Yarma advised the
board not to mount pressure on the new gaffer considering the fact that the club
is just returning back to the premier league after two years sojourn in the Nigeria
National League (NNL), but rather the ultimate target is for the club to remain
in the league at the end of the season.
