A Plateau State High Court sitting in Bukuru, near Jos, has suspended indefinitely the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) pending when the League Management Company (LMC) fully complies with its earlier order reinstating Giwa FC to the league.
Justice I. I. Kunda in his ruling delivered at the high court yesterday decried the tactics being employed by the counsel to the LMC, Olumide Olujimi, which he said was to delay the case knowing full well that the Nigerian league is time-bound. He said the counsel was hoping that the league would have effectively ended before the case is determined.
The judge declared the case adjourned sine die, but also told the defendants that they could continue with their appeal at the appellate court if they so wished.
