Nasarawa United have officially parted ways with their Technical Director, Kabir Dogo, following a mutual agreement between both parties. The club made this announcement in a statement released on Sunday, confirming that the decision takes immediate effect.
The move comes after a comprehensive review of the club’s performance in the ongoing 2024/25 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season. Nasarawa United acknowledged that they had fallen short of their expectations, prompting a need for change in leadership.
Despite the commitment of Dogo and his coaching staff, the team’s results did not meet the required standard. The club management stated that while the decision was difficult, it was necessary to move in a new direction to salvage their season.
