He specifically praised the ICP managenent and the students for the support they always give the team, saying it has served as morale booster to the team on number of ocassions.
” I can’t explain how great we have benefitted from your support in the past. I remember a particular game we had and result was not forthcoming, I looked at where these students usually sit and I said in my mind, is this what we will use to pay back these boys and girls?
“That is is always my thought when I see them around and when I listen to their vociferous support. I want to assure you that, this season, we are gping to reward you with the promotion ticket back to the premier league”, the 3SC helms man stated.
