The League Management Company (LMC) has taken cognizance of the scheduling of the live broadcast of Match Day 25 between Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries Football Club of Lagos and City neighbors, Ikorodu United Football Club of Lagos and has consequently lifted the closed gates sanction imposed on the Agege Township Stadium, the home ground of the Olukoya Boys.
That sanction will now come into effect from their Match Day 27 home fixture against Heartland Football Club of Owerri.
