The Sai Masu Gida defender believes clinching points on the road can prove vital to their title hopes this season

Kano Pillars may be close to the top of the NPFL log and Zikiye has maintained that Masu Gida are still targeting number one spot.

"Once we get to that first spot on the NPFL log then we won't let go of such position. So let those that are there continue to enjoy it and not slip because if we happen to get there of which we will then we will build our house and stay there till the end of the season."

Kano Pillars currently sit in fourth position on the NPFL log with an outstanding match in the thirteen weeks old league.
