Musa thanked football stakeholders in the state for their support during the season.
“Despite our slow and unfamiliar start to the campaign, our darling club, Kano Pillars FC, showed resilience, character and determination to retain its NPFL status for another season,” Musa was quoted in his appreciation message.
“This achievement would not have been possible without the unwavering support, prayers and encouragement from the good people of Kano and football lovers across the country.”
