The Jigawa Golden Stars have named Majin Mohammed as their new head coach ahead of the 2026/27 season of the Nigeria National League (NNL). The appointment was announced at a ceremony held in Dutse, where club officials unveiled the new coaching staff.
Mohammed will lead the club’s campaign to secure promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL). His appointment comes after a successful stint in the top tier, where he guided Niger Tornadoes to avoid relegation last season.
During his time with Niger Tornadoes, Mohammed was credited with masterminding the club’s survival in the NPFL, a feat that has earned him recognition as a coach capable of competing at the highest level of Nigerian football.
By bringing NPFL experience to a second‑tier side, the Golden Stars aim to build on their recent performances and push for a return to the top flight. The club’s leadership expressed confidence that Mohammed’s track record will help them achieve that objective.
