PFA Chairman Challenges Plateau State Male And Female Teams To Hoist The State Flag High As They File Out In Minna, Markurdi, Ayingba And Lafia
As the Round of 32 of the President Federation Cup starts across the Nation today, the Chairman, Plateau State Football Association, Hon(Dr) Prince Suleiman Yahaya Kwand, has called on Plateau State representatives to have the trophy as their sole target.
Hon Suleiman Yahaya Kwande, while charging the quartet of Plateau United fc and Mighty Jets International FC for the male and the women representatives, Mighty Jets Mata fc and Plateau United Queens, said it’s unheard that Plateau State, known as the mecca of football in Nigeria to have won the Federation Cup only once when Plateau United FC won it in 1999, after a record 11 appearances at the final by Plateau State teams.
Leading the onslaught for Plateau State teams is the State defending Champions, Plateau United fc, who will take on Ahudiannem fc today by 1pm in Makurdi.
State finalists, Mighty Jets International fc will follow suit tomorrow when they will be slugging it out with Adamimogo fc in Minna at 4pm.
The women will take their own turn on the 25th of May, 2026, as Plateau State Women defending champions, Mighty Jets fc Mata, who just returned from Abuja after eliminating Kada Queens FC of Kaduna, will lockhorns with Naija Ratels fc of Abuja in Lafia at 4pm. While State women Finalist, Plateau United Queens, will trade tackles with Osun Babes in Ayingba, Kogi State on the 25th at 4pm.
