NNL throws out 1472 FC from the League

The Nigeria National League has expelled Lagos-based 1472 FC from further participation in the 2024/2025 Season, following the team’s failure to honour three matches in the ongoing season.

The matches were against Abia Comets (Match 9), Dakkada FC (Match 53) and Ijele FC (Match 74).

The NNL relied on the league’s article 14.11 to expel the club.

In the letter signed by the NNL’s Chief Operating Officer, Danlami Alanana, 1472 FC are also fined the sum of N5 million, with the consequence that results of all their played matches have been nullified, and unplayed matches cancelled.
