Davidson Owumi, the Chief Operating Officer in a notice of the AGM to all the clubs explained that the date will allow for a very effective organization of the season’s activities.
The notice to the clubs also stated that the Draw Event for the 2023/24 season would still hold on the same date as the AGM in Abuja.
The clubs were reminded that player registration which commenced earlier will continue. They were urged to use the available window before kickoff to complete the documentation process for their squad.
After their inauguration, this will be the first AGM between the clubs and the new NPL Board headed by Hon Gbenga Elegbeleye.
