Niger Tornadoes closed out the 2025/26 NPFL season with a 1-0 win over Shooting Stars at the Bako Kontagora Stadium, ending a five-match winless run on a high.
The result confirmed a 14th-place finish for the Ikon Allah Boys, with 13 wins, 9 draws and 16 losses from 38 matches, and 48 points on the final table.
The campaign was Niger Tornadoes' latest instalment in what has become a recurring theme in recent years — a hard-fought battle for survival — and prompted the club's subsequent review of the technical crew.
