Head coach of Akwa United, Paul Offor, has reiterated that the club’s main objective this season is to secure promotion back to the top flight of Nigerian football, Nigeriasoccernet.com understands.
The Promise Keepers are currently competing in the Nigeria National League and are determined to earn a swift return to the Nigeria Premier Football League after their relegation to the second division.
Speaking to the club’s media team, Offor stressed the importance of staying focused as the campaign enters a crucial stage with only a few matches left to play.
“The remaining six matches are very crucial for us, and we cannot afford to be complacent. We must remain focused and ensure we make the most of our chances,” Offor said.
The tactician further emphasised that consistency will be key if the team hopes to maintain its push for promotion this season.
“We are not yet where we want to be, and we have to sustain our current momentum by showing consistency in our performance.
“We have reached a stage in our campaign where we must approach every match like a cup final.
“We cannot gamble with our chances. We must be fully prepared to fight and win together because our objective is to finish the season strongly.”
Akwa United will look to keep their promotion hopes alive when they take on Osun United in their next league fixture.
