Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Bayelsa United striker, Robert Mizo has revealed that helping his team maintain their Premier League status is more important to him than the highest goal scorer award<\/p>\n

The prolific forward has netted six times in the Nigeria Premier Football League for the Yenagoa-based club this season<\/p>\n

Mizo, however, said that it will be a great feeling to see his boyhood club continue playing in the top flight.<\/p>\n

\u201cBayelsa United Premier league status is the real deal now,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt won\u2019t be nice winning the top scorer award and seeing us (Bayelsa United) relegated. This is my team and they must always be in the top flight every season.<\/p>\n

Mizo currently trails Enyimba forward, Chukwuemeka Obioma who is on nine goals and Bendel Insurances\u2019 Imade Osarenkhoe who has scored eight goals.<\/p>\n
