Following his recent impressive performances for Dakkada, Udo was the subject of massive speculation — with rumours linking him with a move to a host of clubs in the country.

However, the speedster — who has notched two goals and three assists this season — chose to make a switch to Pillars, putting pen to paper on a deal that will see him represent the Masu Gida for the next two seasons.

The Akwa Ibom-born star will be hoping to add to his season tally of two goals when he finally dons the yellow and green colours of the northwest club, who are second in the NPFL standings.
