As we already know,The Premier League and National League are both in their 25th week of action.but unfortunately you wont be seeing those actions anymore! this is because,Nigeria’s top flight football league has been suspended after referees were directed not to take charges of matches in protest at a governance crisis in the domestic game.
in the news,Nigeria Premier League organisers the League Management Committee said it was impossible for them to organise games as a result of the directive from the Nigeria Referees Association (NRA) adding that, The NRA earlier ordered that all referees slated to officiate in the Premier League should withdraw from matches “until sanity is restored” in the national game. The directive, contained in a circular signed by NRA secretary-general Moroof Oyekunle Oluwa, also applied to the second-tier National League, Nigeria Federation Cup and the women’s leagues.
Reacting to questions coming from sport lover in the country,League Management Committee official Salihu Abubakar said clubs and their sponsorship partners have been informed and teams directed not to proceed to venues of their scheduled games until further notice. “We are already running a tight fixture schedule and are hoping that this crisis is resolved soon so the season can be concluded in time for our clubs to prepare for continental registration and participation”, the statement concluded.
