The Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), has appealed to the Kano State Government to appoint competent technocrats and professionals with vast knowledge of sports to manage the affairs of Kano Pillars FC and all other sports sectors in the state.
SWAN also calls for the renovations and upgrading of Sani Abacha Stadium, Kano Pillars Stadium, Mahaha Sports Complex, Ado Bayero Square, and all other sporting facilities in the state. This will provide conducive environments for athletes to thrive and host national and international events.

This move, we believe, will yield positive outcomes and elevate the standard of sports in Kano State.
