Nigeria
Football Federation on Thursday rejected moves by club owners/managers
in the premier league to sack the League Management Company appointed
by the federation last year.
A statement by the football house on
Thursday quoted the NFF President Aminu Maigari as saying, “The
League Management Company remains in place.”
Maigari said the LMC was inaugurated by
the NFF and granted a licence to administer the league on its behalf and
could only be stopped by the federation.
He said, “I am shocked to hear about a
meeting of club owners/managers, where they reportedly told the LMC to
hand over to the secretariat of the league.
“That is not within their purview. It is the responsibility of the NFF to determine the fate of the LMC.
“The LMC has done well within the past 10 months, to reposition the premier league and they deserve commendation.
“As far as the NFF is concerned, the LMC
remains firmly in place and will have the opportunity to continue its
good work for a period to be determined shortly.”
