Kada Warriors Sign 13 New Players – Can They Push for NPFL Promotion?

Kada Warriors have made a bold statement of intent by reinforcing their squad with 13 new signings ahead of the second half of the 2024/25 Nigeria National League (NNL) season.

The Kaduna-based club, currently sitting eighth in Group D with six points, is determined to mount a serious push for promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL). To achieve this, they have added fresh firepower, including Nazim Amokachi, Kalim Amokachi, Lawal Shehu Giwa, Daniel Adoga, Isaac Gabriel, and Ahmed Abubakar. Others joining the squad are Adams Ali, Salisu Lawal, Salihu Mustapha, Abdulsalam Abdulsalam, Daniel Iliyaza, Yusuf Salisu, and Saheed Abdulsalam.

A Bold Gamble or a Game-Changer?

Bringing in 13 new players mid-season is a high-risk, high-reward move. On one hand, it signals ambition and intent—Kada Warriors are not content with mid-table mediocrity. On the other, integrating such a large group into an existing squad quickly could pose challenges in team chemistry and cohesion.

However, with the Warriors eager to climb the table, these signings could be the spark they need. The addition of experienced and young talents alike might give them the necessary depth and tactical flexibility to compete in the second half of the season.

The Road Ahead

Their first real test will be against Basira FC next week. A win would not only boost morale but also send a strong message to the rest of the league. If these new players hit the ground running, Kada Warriors could quickly turn their promotion dream into a reality.

One thing is clear: the club is not playing it safe. They are going all in, and the next few weeks will determine whether this bold approach pays off. Can Kada Warriors make a late surge up the table and challenge for NPFL promotion? Time will tell, but one thing is certain—fans are in for an exciting second half of the season.
