Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) clubs are to meet with the newly inaugurated board of the league body on Thursday.
The meeting, scheduled for the Sandralia Hotel in Abuja, will be the first consultative session of the club Chairmen/General Managers of the 20 NPFL clubs.
Whilst the agenda for the meeting was not stated in the invitation letter signed by NPFL’s Chief Operating Officer, Davidson Owumi, the board members and club leaders are likely to hold discussions on the 2023/24 season, which has tentatively been set to commence on 26th/27th August.
The meeting will also avail the new board the opportunity to share its vision and strategy to build on the momentum gained from the last season, which the new Chairman, Hon. Gbenga Elegbeleye headed as an interim capacity.
“The board under my watch will build on the gains achieved last season especially now that we have the backing to operate as a properly constituted board”, Elegbeleye pledged.
The NPFL is returning this season with live streaming of over 300 games, which can be accessed through mobile devices in Nigeria and across the globe.
Thursday’s meeting will also avail the board the opportunity to welcome the newly promoted clubs, namely Sporting Lagos, Kano Pillars, Katsina United and Heartland.
