He redeemed his pledge to the delight of the victorious Kwara United team who edged out teams like Bendel insurance, Rivers United, as well Lobi Stars, to emerge champions of the pre-season tournament.
Badawiy congratulated the team for a job well done and urged them not to relent as the victory was just a step forward to greater things to come when the new season football begins proper.
