Posted : 23 October 2023
The 2023/2024 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) Match Day 4 between Lobi Stars FC of Makurdi and Abia Warriors FC has been rescheduled from Saturday to Sunday due to a security breach in Otukpo, Benue State.

It was reported that armed robbers had invaded the city of Otukpo in Benue State, robbing banks, and causing many casualties.

The management of Lobi Stars FC, in an official statement, announced the postponement of the match, originally scheduled for Sunday.

The statement read: "We regret to announce that the Lobi Stars NPFL Matchday 4 fixture against Abia Warriors has been postponed.

The reason for the postponement is to express our sympathy to the families who lost their loved ones in a tragic robbery attack on four banks in Otukpo, Benue State on Friday.

Otukpo, where the tragic incident occurred, is the Local Government area of the Deputy Governor, His Excellency Barr. Sam Ode, who is also the Chairman of Lobi Stars Football Club.

In light of this unfortunate incident, the Management of Lobi Stars approached the league authorities and requested a change of date to mourn with the bereaved.

Consequently, the league authorities have approved their request and rescheduled Lobi Stars' match against Abia Warriors to Sunday, 22nd October 2023, at the same venue in Lafia, Nasarawa State. The match time remains at 4:00 pm.

May God grant eternal rest to those who lost their lives during the incident and console their families."
