The Minister for Youths and Sports, Mr. Sunday Dare confirmed this on Friday at the National Stadium Lagos while briefing Journalists. The league which was suspended due to the Covid-19 pandemic is to resume on Sunday 27th December.
With emphasis on the right things being done,the Minister said “Part of the problem of not starting the League outside the covid 19 pandemic is from them, the organisers. We’ve been waiting for them. We’re meeting with the NFF and NPFL to sort things out. What is most Important is that we must do the right things.
“We must know the number of teams who are ready and have fulfilled the necessary regulations to start. We’ll start with whatever number of teams who have done the right things. December 27 is sacrosanct. The League will start on that date.
