Stars will travel to Kano for the start of the competition on January 9, with the side coming up against Nigeria Premier League rivals Kano Pillars, Enugu Rangers and Heartland.
"The Super Four tournament is a test case of our readiness for the season. It will be tough but it will adequately prepare us for the league and continental assignments," Agbaji told SuperSport.
"Lobi will be a contender for the title. All the teams are tough, the best will come out winners and I'm confident Lobi will emerge the best at the end."
The 2012/13 NPL campaign was initially scheduled to start in December, but numerous delays have seen the kick-off date shifted to February, leaving Agbaji champing at the bit to get proceedings under way.
He added: "We're disappointed over delay in starting the league but thank God it will kick off eventually.
"We expect a fruitful season and Lobi will challenge for trophies."
