Nigeria League Shops For New Sponsors
The Nigeria Professional
Football League (NPFL) will now shop for new title sponsors following the expiration of a three-year deal with telecommunications company Globacom.
“The contract with Globacom has duly ended at the conclusion of the 2016 Super 4 on February 5, 2016,and therefore Globacom is no longer associating with the NPFL,” according to a communiqué after the AGM of the League Management Company (LMC).
The league, which will start on February 21, is therefore open to interested sponsors.
In the meantime, new club representatives on the LMC board have been announced.
They are Kano Pillars chairman Kabiru Baita, Nse Ubeh (Akwa United), Rasheed Balogun (Shooting Stars), Mohammed Zanna (El Kanemi) and Paul Uzor Chibuzor (Enugu Rangers)
