Acting Secretary of the Club Owners, Alloy Chukwuemeka has declared
that the League Management Company (LMC) has no right to exclude Giwa FC
and Nembe City from this season's Glo Premier League.
Chukwuemeka's comment come just days after the two clubs were expelled from the Nigerian premier division for failure to meet substantial minimum requirement to be licensed to take part in this season's championship.
The general manager of ABS believes the LMC should have forwarded their recommendation to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) before making a pronouncement to throw out the two clubs from the league.
"Yes, we are here for the meeting as you rightly observed but I cannot pre-empt the outcome of the meeting.
"The essence of the meeting is first in solidarity with our colleagues whose clubs were excluded from participating in the league, so we are here also to find out the true position of the issues on the ground so that we can present it to our larger forum and other relevant quarters.
