Abdullahi Maikaba has accepted the offer to manage Nigeria National League side, Wikki Tourist, according to reports.
The 59-year-old tactician will be returning to Wikki Tourists for a second stint after managing the club in 2016.
Maikaba is expected to be unveiled as the new Bauchi Elephants technical adviser later this week.
Wikki Tourists turned to the experienced gaffer following their failure to secure promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League last season.
They finished in third position on the NNL Northern Conference Group A table.
Maikaba previously managed a number of clubs in the NPFL including Kano Pillars, Rangers, Plateau United Akwa United and Enyimba.
