Lagos set to host NPFL AGM from July 15-16

Posted : 04 July 2024

The leadership of the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) has disclosed that Lagos will host the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the league body, which will deliberate on the 2024/25 season scheduled to start on August 31, 2024.


However, leading up to the August kick-off date, some clubs have been directed to carry out remedial works to ensure that their grounds meet the facility requirements of the Club Licensing Regulations.


In a letter dated July 2 addressed to the clubs, Davidson Owumi, the Chief Operating Officer, congratulated the clubs on the successful completion of the last season and extended the invitation for the AGM.


"I write to convey the warm wishes of the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) Board and Management and to congratulate member clubs for the successful completion of the 2023/24 season.


"As we work towards earnest preparations for the new season and its kickoff on August 31, 2024, the Board has elected to invite member clubs for the AGM tentatively scheduled for July 15-16 in Lagos," read the letter to the clubs.


The NPFL informed the clubs through the letter that several of them have been notified about the unacceptable conditions of their playing turf and the absence of broadcast support facilities such as elevated camera stands.


"As we look forward to the meeting, letters have been sent to some clubs whose facilities were found unsuitable to host NPFL matches in the new season, in compliance with the provisions of the Club Licensing Regulations," noted Owumi, who urged clubs that did not receive letters to conduct a self-review of their facilities to ensure compliance with approval requirements.


Abia Warriors, Sunshine Stars, Shooting Stars, and Kwara United are among the clubs that have been instructed to address defects in their stadiums.


Others include Niger Tornadoes, Plateau United, and the newly promoted El-Kanemi Warriors. They have been instructed to upgrade their playing turf or face the prospect of playing on alternative grounds.
