    Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has announced a complete overhaul of Kano Pillars Football Club’s management board, naming former Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa as the new General Manager of the club.

    The appointment was disclosed in an official statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Tofa. The restructuring comes after the expiration of the outgoing board’s one-year tenure and is part of what Governor Yusuf described as a “strategic effort to reposition Kano Pillars for greater success.”

    “This is more than just a reshuffle. It is a deliberate initiative to blend football experience with strong administration. The inclusion of Ahmed Musa reflects our desire to attract investment, inspire players, and reignite fans’ passion for the club,” the statement read.

    Ahmed Musa, one of Nigeria’s most celebrated footballers, has played for top clubs across Europe, including in the English Premier League, Russian Premier League, and Turkish Super Lig. He also captained the Nigerian national team, the Super Eagles. His appointment has generated excitement among fans and stakeholders, particularly those who recall his early playing days with the Kano-based club.

    Speaking about his new role, Musa said: “Kano Pillars has always been close to my heart. I’m honoured by this opportunity to contribute in a new capacity. We have great talent, a loyal fan base, and with the right structure, we can aim higher and compete for titles.”
