Niger Tornadoes’ Technical Adviser, Majin Mohammed, has called on his players to bounce back from recent defeats and approach their home clash against El-Kanemi Warriors with a winning mentality. The match will be played at their adopted home ground, the Ahmadu Bello Stadium in Kaduna.
After suffering back-to-back away losses to Shooting Stars and Akwa United, Mohammed emphasised the importance of focusing on the remaining four home games, stating, “Our fate is in our hands, and we must stay determined to secure positive results.”
He expressed confidence in the team’s familiarity with their Kaduna base, urging the players to make home advantage count. In a boost to his side, key players Ismail Sarki and Ifeanyi Okechukwu have returned to full training and are available for selection this weekend.

Majin Mohammed’s rallying call to his Niger Tornadoes squad ahead of their showdown with El-Kanemi Warriors is more than tactical it’s psychological. After two painful defeats on the road, returning to a familiar environment offers a perfect platform to regroup and reignite their campaign.
This match isn’t just about three points; it’s about belief. Teams are often defined not by how they win, but by how they respond to setbacks. With four home games left, the Tornadoes have a chance to control their destiny. That kind of clarity is rare in the unpredictable world of Nigerian football.
With returning players adding depth and morale, the timing couldn’t be better. But it’s not just about bodies on the pitch it’s about heart, mindset, and the will to rise. The Ikon Allah Boys now face a crucial test. And how they answer could shape their entire season.
