Felele247.com.ng have scooped that the 2019/2020 Nigeria Professional Football League might not commence as expected.
This is due to the ongoing investigative panel setup by the presidential taskmaster to investigate the Nigeria Football Federation officials over misappropriation of funds.
Felele247.com.ng also gathered that League Management Company Chief Executive officer and Director Honourable Nduka Irabor has disslcosed that the Nigeria Professional Football League is yet to get a sponsor “League gets money mainly from broadcast right. Now, we don’t have a robust sponsor, and we don’t have television for the league. We are still negotiating. What we have is ICPC (Independent Corrupt Practices Commission) and the SPIP (Special Presidential Investigation Panel) on the neck of many people.
Most of the things being investigated are internal rivalry, but some people have created the impression of a different thing.
The atmosphere is not okay for our league to start now. Some of the people involved in the running of our football are being invited for questioning by the ICPC and SPIP, and this has made the environment not good enough,”
