Kano Pillars captain Ahmed Musa is confident the club will maintain their top-flight status at the end of the season.
The four-time Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL, champions have endured a difficult campaign.
The Sai Masu Gida boosted their survival hopes with a hard-earned 1-0 victory over Plateau United at the Sani Abacha Stadium on Sunday.
Veteran midfielder Rabiu Ali scored the winning goal from the penalty spot on the stroke of half-time.
Pillars moved to 10th position on the table with 48 points from 36 matches.
The Sai Masu Gida must win their last game of the season against Plateau United to guarantee their safety.
“I’ve said this over and over again from the beginning of the season that Kano Pillars won’t go down,” Musa told reporters.
“So, we’ll keep fighting until the final game of the season.”
