Speaking ahead of the competition, CEO of Toptier Sports Management Limited, Chichi Nwoko, assured that all necessary arrangements have been put in place to ensure a hitch-free and memorable tournament.
She said: “We have worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that all modalities are in place for a superb outing. From logistics to matchday operations, the goal is to deliver a tournament that reflects the growing standards of the league,”
In a bid to maintain high professional standards, organisers have also made it mandatory for all clubs to present their head coach and one player for both pre-match and post-match press conferences throughout the competition.
With promotion already secured, the focus now shifts to pride, prestige, and momentum heading into life in the NPFL.
Sporting Lagos and Inter Lagos will be keen to fly the flag of the commercial capital, while Doma United and the traditional northern side, Ranchers Bees, owned by Super Eagles striker Umar Sadiq, will be equally determined to emerge champions.
