This suspension, which takes effect immediately, follows a report received at the NLO Secretariat alleging that Kabir provided false information during his registration with Camp PRO FC.
This act contravenes Article 3.01(5) of the NLO rulebook, which mandates the accurate submission of a player’s full details — including names and date of birth — during registration. Furthermore, clubs are responsible for verifying the eligibility of their players in line with the league’s regulations. Failure to do so may result in disciplinary actions.
Accordingly, Usman Kabir is barred from participating in any NLO fixtures until further notice. The league will assess his case and provide further updates as necessary.
We urge all stakeholders to comply with this directive. For inquiries or additional clarification, please contact the NLO Secretariat.
