The General Manager of Kano Pillars Football Club, Ahmed Musa, has apologised for the violent scenes that occurred during their NPFL match against Shooting Stars Sports Club on Sunday.
In a statement issued late Sunday, Musa described the incident as heartbreaking, shameful, and completely unacceptable.
According to him, it does not represent the true values or proud history of Kano Pillars.
“Violence has no place in football. It is unacceptable, unjustifiable, and goes against everything this beautiful sport stands for,” he said.
Musa tendered an unreserved apology to Shooting Stars’ players, coaches, fans, match officials, and league organisers, promising that the club will cooperate with authorities to identify and sanction those responsible.
“We understand that apologies alone are not enough. Words must be followed by action, and we will take steps to ensure this never happens again,” he added.
