Nigeriasoccernet.com writes that newly signed utility player Oscar Nwimo has vowed to contribute to ensuring ABS FC of Ilorin secures promotion to the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) in the ongoing 2024/2025 Nigeria National League (NNL) season.
The versatile player, who previously showcased his talent with Abia Comets last season, joins the "Saraki Boys" with a wealth of experience and determination to make a significant impact. Nwimo's journey began with SKE FC of Port Harcourt, where he honed his skills before earning higher-level opportunities.
Expressing his excitement and commitment, Nwimo took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to share his thoughts:
"I have joined ABS FC of Ilorin for the new NNL season. Here is another opportunity to showcase what I love doing."
Under the guidance of head coach Sani Sarduana, Nwimo is poised to play a pivotal role in the team's quest to achieve their season objectives. Known for his versatility and tactical awareness, he is expected to bring depth and energy to the squad.
ABS FC, colloquially known as the "Saraki Boys," are eager to bounce back from a challenging start to the campaign. The team suffered a defeat in their opening match against Kun Khalifat FC in Owerri and will look to secure their first victory of the season when they host Abakaliki FC at the Kwara State Stadium. A win would not only lift the team's morale but also reaffirm their ambitions for promotion.
Having built a reputation for developing talented players and maintaining a competitive edge in the NNL, ABS FC remains hopeful of a successful season. Nwimo's addition to the squad is seen as a step in the right direction, with fans and management alike optimistic about the impact he can make.
As the NNL season progresses, all eyes will be on the Ilorin-based team to see if they can turn their aspirations into reality and secure a place in Nigeria's top-flight football league.
