Kano Pillars FC has suspended their Technical Adviser, Sidi-Usman Shariff Abd'Allah, for three weeks following a goalless draw against Bayelsa United on NPFL25 Matchday 22. The decision comes after concerns over the team's poor performance and the coach’s conduct towards fans at the end of the match.
The club has struggled for consistency in recent fixtures, managing just one win in their last three games. The draw against Bayelsa United further frustrated the club's supporters, who expected a stronger performance from their team.
In a statement, Kano Pillars management cited Abd'Allah’s reaction towards fans as inappropriate, prompting disciplinary action. The club emphasized the importance of maintaining professional conduct both on and off the pitch, regardless of match results.
During Abd'Allah’s suspension, Chief Coach Ahmed Garba Yaro-Yaro will step in as interim head coach. He will be assisted by Abubakar Musa, Gambo Mohammed, Suleiman Shuaibu, and Ayuba Musa, ensuring stability within the coaching setup.
Kano Pillars will now shift their focus to their upcoming NPFL25 Matchday 23 fixture against Remo Stars in Ikenne. The team will be looking to regroup and produce a better performance after recent struggles.
Fans have expressed mixed reactions to the suspension, with some supporting the club's disciplinary action, while others believe the team’s overall performance issues go beyond the coach’s influence. Some have called for the management to reinforce the squad in the mid-season transfer window.
For Ahmed Garba Yaro-Yaro, this is an opportunity to prove his tactical abilities. The former Kano Pillars star will be under pressure to secure a positive result against a strong Remo Stars side, currently in contention for the league title.
The club’s leadership has urged players to remain focused and committed despite the coaching shake-up. They emphasized that the season is still open, and a strong response in the coming fixtures could help restore confidence and morale.
Kano Pillars' management has not yet confirmed whether Abd'Allah will return to his role after the three-week suspension or if further decisions will be made based on the team’s performances under Yaro-Yaro.
With the NPFL25 season approaching its crucial stage, Kano Pillars must find a way to regain momentum, starting with their clash against Remo Stars. The outcome of this match could shape their campaign going forward.
