Kwara united are finally off the block but leave Heartland and Enyimba behind as the only teams without a win after four matched of the 2018 NPFL season.
The Afonja Warriors secured a hard fought 1-0 victory and also had a man sent off against Wikki Tourist in Ilorin to halt the three match losing skid.
John Obuh’s men took advantage of playing at home midweek as did several other teams in what played out to be an exciting matchday four in the day.
A point was better than no points at all for Heartland who laboured to tuck away a late equalizer in Omoku to leave the newly promoted side ruing their luck.
Meanwhile, champions Plateau United decisioned El Kanemi Warriors 3-0 in Jos to jump to the top of the log with 9 points from four matches.
On Thursday, Enyimba will hope to turn their fortunes around and brush Nasarawa united aside at the UJ Esuene Stadium – their adopted home ground – in the only remaining game of the Matchday 4 fixtures.
