“I left Pillars over 10 years ago without winning the league but now, by God’s grace, I will make a special record by leading the club to the NPFL title,” he said.

He thanked the management, players and fans of the club for sustaining the relationship.

On his part, chairman of the club, Alhaji Surajo Shuaibu, expressed delight at the decision of Musa to rejoin the club 10 years after and urged him to feel at home as always.

Shuaibu urged him to use his vast experience to move the club forward and assured him that the club would release him any time he gets an offer outside the shores of Nigeria.
