Kano Pillars unveil defender, Benjamin Ozor.

Ozor, who is joining the team from former NPFL champions, Heartland FC, currently competing in the Nigeria National League (NNL), was impressed with his pace, defensive discipline, and attacking support during his time with Heartland.

Ozor's signing is the first, as Kano Pillars is expected to finalize more new signings before the transfer window closes, to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season, and there are speculations about El-Kanemi Warriors' 21-year-old defender, Mukhtar Mohammed, joining the team, which would add depth to their defensive line-up.

Kano Pillars is still without a substantive head coach after Usman Abdallah's departure in May, and Abia Warriors' technical adviser, Imama Amapakabo, is reportedly the leading candidate for the position, because the team's coaching situation will be crucial in determining their success in the upcoming season.
