Meanwhile, it goes straight into the penalty shootout, TY BURATAI Academy won in a narrow score line after a player from FC Crack missed the first opportunity for them to win the trophy.

TY BURATAI Academy capitalises on the opportunity and maintains the lead by seven goals to eight in favour of Buratai Academy.

In his remark after the final whistle, Alhaji Ibrahim Buratai, president of FC Buratai Academy, congratulated the team on their efforts to win the trophy and called on youths to show love and togetherness.

“It’s also a form of non-kinetic war by engaging youths in the state to do away with all forms of social vices and embrace peace, discipline, and love for each other.”

It could be recalled that Ambassador General TY Buratai, since he assumed the office as the chief of army staff, has been applying various methods, techniques, and modalities of youth engagement and youth development in Borno state and the northeast at large.
