Unity Preseason Tourney Will Prepare Nasarawa United For 2022/23 NPFL –Chairman, Danladi

Barrister Isaac Danladi, Executive Chairman of Nasarawa United, has revealed reasons the NPFL side is placing much premium on the Unity Football Tournament billed to get underway in Abuja on October 16 through 23, Completesports.com reports.

Danladi, who doubles as Chairman of the Nigerian Club Owners Association, the umbrella body of NPFL clubs, spoke when Nasarawa State Commissioner for Sports, Ambassador Lucky Isaac Yargwa, visited the ‘Solid Miners’ during a training session.

Danladi reckons that participation in the Unity Cup Preseason Tournament gives his team ‘absolute Concentration’ and ‘serene atmospheres devoid of distraction’ ahead of the 2022/2023 season.

“You can see that we are making efforts to go for the Abuja Unity Preseason Tournament where we ended as runners-up last season,”
Danladi informed the Commissioner.

“This is to enable us to get full concentration and avoid all sorts of distractions and detractors.

“We only intend to replace a few numbers of our players who left us after the end of last Season.

“Whoever doesn’t have any business to be here with us will have to give us some space to allow us to concentrate.”

Danladi added: “From the Abuja Unity Preseason Tournament, we intend to proceed to Kaduna and Jos, respectively, for further closed-door camping.

“This will enable us to get access to state-of-the-art facilities needed to keep our players abreast of the main tasks ahead.”
