Rivers United midfielder Austin Okejepha says the team will go all out for a win against Kano Pillars on Sunday.
The encounter is billed for the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium, Port Harcourt.
“The game is very important for us,” Okejepha said in a short video interview posted on the club’s X handle.
“We really need the points because the last game we played at home we drew and we are not happy, our club’s management too were happy about the result.
“So we need to go out there and show them that we can do it again and take three points back home.
