Doma United FC have secured promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League after a 2-0 victory over Mighty Jets FC on Wednesday, sparking wild celebrations among their supporters.
The crucial win at the Pantami Stadium confirmed Doma United as winners of Conference C in the Nigeria National League, sealing their return to the top flight just two years after relegation.
The “Savannah Scorpions” went into the match knowing that victory would guarantee promotion, and they delivered with a composed performance in front of their home fans.
Speaking after the match, head coach Najib Mabo expressed his joy at guiding the team back to the elite division.
“It is a special moment for us. The players showed great commitment and discipline to achieve this goal. We are proud to return Doma United to the NPFL,” he said.
The young coach had earlier described the fixture as emotional due to his strong ties with Mighty Jets, a club closely linked to his late father, Ismaila Mabo.
Despite the emotional challenge, Mabo remained focused on the task, leading his side to a victory that not only secured promotion but also confirmed relegation for the Jos-based club.
Doma United’s success has been built on consistency throughout the season, with a strong home record playing a key role in their campaign.
The result triggered celebrations in Gombe, as fans and players marked a quick return to the NPFL, where the club will compete again next season.
