We thank God for the responsible leadership of the NFF President Ibrahim Gusau who bridged a reconciliation between IMC and Club Chairmen in such a short time.

The partnership with GTI which guarantees complete sponsorship package of Referees indemnities, 200,000,000 naira take off fund for the clubs and the undaunted effort at harmonizing our league calendar with the global football community.
It is our sincere hope that this zeal will be sustained to ensure our elite league transit to a truly professional one with international best practices in the shortest possible time.
We therefore call on the Referees to show professionalism as arbiters of integrity in compliment of the efforts of the IMC as they will no longer be left at the mercy of the clubs.
