Former IG’s son focuses on football

It appears Jamil MD Abubakar, son of a former Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Dikko Abubakar, has another thing he loves besides flying aeroplanes.

Abubakar founded JMD Sports Academy in 2021 to help youths to reach their full potential by providing the training tools and a pathway to realise their dreams of becoming professionals.

It was gathered that he has started soccer trials in Kano. A trial was held some days ago but there are plans to hold another set of trials in August and it would be for seven days.

Communicating through his Instagram page, he said more details of the upcoming trials would be communicated soon. He advised Kano youths to be patient, saying there would be more opportunities to show their skills.

“Thanks to players out there, most especially the ones who are trying to survive,” he said.
