Nasarawa United Coach Pleads For Patience After Shock Home Loss

Under-fire Nasarawa United technical adviser, Mbwas Mangut, has issued a passionate plea for calm and continued support from the club’s faithful following a humbling home defeat that has sent their Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) title ambitions into a tailspin.

The Solid Miners’ season hit a new low last weekend when they suffered a shocking 1-0 loss to bottom club Kun Khalifat FC on their own turf. The unexpected defeat—against a side widely expected to struggle—marks the team’s second consecutive league loss and has raised serious questions about their ability to compete at the top of the table.

Despite the growing frustration among fans, Mangut remains defiant. In a statement released through the club’s media channel, the technical adviser promised that the squad would redouble its efforts in the remaining fixtures.

“The time for reckoning is upon us; we will rise to the occasion and ensure that the remaining part of our campaign concludes on a note of dignity and competitiveness,” Mangut declared.

Acknowledging the pain of recent results, he added: “Let me assure our dedicated and loyal supporters and fans across the globe that we are working tirelessly behind the scenes to address the issues that have led to our recent predicament. No doubt, your support remains our greatest strength, and we ask that you continue to stand by us as we navigate these challenging times.”
