Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Osun United head coach, Seye Ajayi, has attributed his team\u2019s performance in the 2025 Nigeria National League (NNL) season to consistency.<\/p>\n

The Omoluabi Giants secured qualification to the NNL Super Eight playoff tournament after finishing second in Group B.<\/p>\n

Osun United defeated Firstbank FC 3-1 in their final match of the regular season to confirm their participation in the promotion playoff tournament.<\/p>\n

Ajayi said that his team will build on the performance in the playoff competition.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s just the consistency of the team,\u201d Ajayi told DAILY POST.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe tried to keep the players together for two seasons now. Which really helped our consistency.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, like you know, I took over the team while in the amateur league, with God\u2019s grace we got promoted to NNL, we spent two seasons, and here we are in playoff.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe win has undoubtedly boosted the team\u2019s morale and we will look to build on this momentum in the push for promotion to the top flight.\u201d<\/p>\n
