The seminar, held at the Stephen Keshi Stadium on Friday, November 22nd, brought together Match Commissioners from the Nigeria National League (NNL), Nigeria League One (NLO), and the Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL).


Ahlan highlighted the challenges facing the lower leagues, including the number of teams and funding.


He appealed to corporate sponsors to partner with the league, emphasizing the NFF's commitment to improving the leagues.


"The NFF is working tirelessly to improve the leagues. You will agree with me that the officiating and organization of the league have improved," Ahlan said.


"Second-division teams have challenged premier league teams, with three second-division teams qualifying for the last four stage and even participating in the CAF Confederation Cup."


Ahlan urged Match Commissioners to maintain professionalism, adhere to the dress code, and remember that they represent the NFF while officiating matches.


The NFF South-South Match Commissioners Coordinator and former Delta State FA Chairman, Chief Ken Nwoamucha, who hosted the event, commended the NFF Committee members and Match Commissioners who participated in the seminar, titled "Match Commissioning and the Challenges of Match Reporting."
