Under the leadership of General Manager and former Nigeria international Ahmed Musa, Kano Pillars have been pushing hard to reduce dependence on state government funding by attracting private sector sponsors — a strategy that has already brought in partnerships with RFI Hausa and several Kano-based businesses.

RAFA Detergent, one of the fastest-growing detergent brands in Northern Nigeria, now joins Viva Detergent’s legacy as a detergent brand to sponsor Pillars. Aspira Nigeria’s Viva brand were Pillars’ front sponsors in the 2020/21 season.

The new jerseys with the RAFA branding are expected to be unveiled before Matchday 8.
