NPFL: Jatau predicts Heartland win over Abia Warriors

Former Heartland striker Ishaya Jatau has predicted a narrow win for the Naze Millionaires in the Oriental derby against Abia Warriors.

Heartland will lock horns with Abia Warriors in a matchday 10 fixture at the Umuahia Township Stadium on Sunday.

Jatau urged the supporters to rally round head coach Emmanuel Amuneke for the team to achieve success.

“Emmanuel Amuneke is a thorough professional, Heartland are lucky to have him. I have watched his training and what he is building,” Jatau told Heartland Media.

“All the fans need is patience and total support for the team. With what I have seen, Heartland will beat Abia Warriors by a slim margin.

“In my days the fans were so good. They had a song for me and most times when they sing it , I will score after three or four minutes. They are so important to the success of our team.

“So I am begging that they support this team. Support Amuneke to lift this team. Like I said before we need to be patient, I love what am seeing and the future is bright”
