Akwa United recorded their seventh win of the campaign with a 1-0 victory over Katsina United in Uyo on Monday.
The Promise Keepers currently occupy 19th position on the league table with 27 points.
Boboye said that the team has what it takes to survive relegation.
“I’m grateful that we were able to secure all three points in the game. Our major target in all the remaining games is to ensure we win both home and away. The match was a tactical one, and we needed to be at our best to ensure we got the maximum points,” Boboye told Akwa United’s media.
“While I’m happy that we won this match, I’m terribly disappointed that we didn’t score more goals despite the fact that we were in total control of the game. The issue of finishing has been a key challenge for us. The boys played well, they created wonderful scoring chances, but making good use of those opportunities was the problem.
“Despite the difficulties we are facing, our fans are always there to cheer and support us. We cannot afford to disappoint them; we have to reciprocate.
“The only thing we have to do is to continue working on our finishing, taking it one game at a time, and getting ready to fight for all available points in the remaining matches of the season to ensure we stay safe and play in the NPFL next season.”
