Plateau United goalkeeper Okiemute Odah has urged his teammates to maintain their impressive form following last Sunday’s emphatic 4-0 victory over Kano Pillars in the Nigeria Premier Football League ,NPFL. The Peace Boys recorded a dominant win at the New Jos Stadium, handing Kano Pillars their first defeat of the season.
Paul Samson and Ekundayo Ojo found the net in the first half to give Plateau United a comfortable lead before Samuel Ayanrinde and Nenrot Silas added two more goals after the break to complete the rout. Reacting to the victory, Odah emphasised the importance of building on the result and continuing to fight for valuable points as the season progresses.
The shot stopper also credited his teammates and the coaching staff for their collective effort in securing the convincing win. “I want to thank my teammates and the coaches because it’s a collective effort. The result against Kano Pillars is good for us, and if we continue like this, we will do even better,” Odah told Plateau United’s media.
“I want to urge the fans to keep supporting us so that we can do it, and we will make them proud.” Plateau United, managed by Gbenga Ogunbote, currently sit third in the NPFL standings with 14 points from eight matches. The Jos-based side will look to extend their winning run when they host Sporting Lagos in their next league fixture on Sunday.
