Ranchers Gain Promotion To Premier League
Ranchers Bees have
claimed they have been promoted to the Nigeria premier league after the Nigeria National League awarded them the abandoned Week 30 game against Kwara United.
The game was abandoned after the away team, Kwara United, failed to continue the game on account that they were attacked by home team fans, an incident Ranchers Bees denied.
Ranchers Bees media officer, Vincent Akinbami, told African Football.com: “We have been awarded three goals and three points from the game against Kwara United by the NNL board.
”A new league table was released by NNL given us three goals, three points placing us first on the table with 54 points pending NFF O and D decision.”
Wikki Tourists are the other team from the NNL Division A who have been promoted to the top flight.
