NPFL: Onyekachi Okafor vows to boost Heartland’s winning streak with goals

By Wale Mustapha

Striker Onyekachi Okafor has voiced his determination to bolster Heartland’s winning momentum in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) through his goals and stellar performances.

The Naze Millionaires had a lackluster start to the NPFL season, resulting in a series of disappointing outcomes. The team underwent coaching changes, with Christian Obi returning for his second stint after a brief tenure by Kennedy Boboye.

Heartland secured their first victory of the season under Obi’s guidance, defeating Abia Warriors 2-0. Okafor contributed one of the goals, taking his season tally to five.

Relieved to see the club’s resurgence and the joy it brings to the fans, Okafor is committed to further success, starting with their upcoming match against Rivers United in Port Harcourt.

Heartland, currently playing home games at the Awka City Stadium in Anambra State, remains rooted at the bottom of the NPFL table, with 23 points from 25 matches.
