Apr 24 Heartland FC Vows to Fight Relegation Battle to the Finish

Former NPFL champions, Heartland FC, are not backing down as the fight for top-flight survival enters its critical phase. With just a few games left in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season, the Naze Millionaires are rallying for a dramatic turnaround.

Currently sitting 17th on the log with 42 points, Heartland are hovering dangerously close to relegation waters. But head coach Emmanuel Amuneke and his boys are refusing to throw in the towel.

In a bold statement posted on X, the club declared:

“We shall not get tired until we achieve our objective… Our boys are ready for pure mining.” 💪

The message comes ahead of their matchday 35 showdown with Nasarawa United—a fixture that could define their season. The clash, set to hold in Gombe, is a make-or-break moment.

🔥 Opinion: Are the Naze Millionaires Built for This Survival Fight?

Heartland may be struggling on the table, but their spirit is unshaken. With a coach like Amuneke, who knows what it takes to grind out results, and a squad with flashes of potential, there's still hope.

However, hope without goals won’t be enough. The defense needs to tighten up, and their attack must start firing with intent. Every point now is like gold in a mine — and they’re heading into Gombe looking to dig deep.
