“Maybe Nasarawa because they are a more experienced side, but this time it doesn’t matter. We have faced them every season. If we are determined as a team, we can come out victorious,” she said.
Fatimah also highlighted the competitiveness of the league, noting that any team could emerge as a strong contender this season.
“Dannaz Ladies, FC Robo, Nasarawa Amazons… I can’t say who will be the toughest because everybody is preparing to give their best. It can be any team,” she concluded.
