NNL axes 1472 FC from league

The Nigeria National League has expelled Lagos-based 1472 FC from further participation in the 2024/2025 season, following the team’s failure to honour three matches in the ongoing campaign.
The matches were against Abia Comets (Match 9), Dakkada FC (Match 53), and Ijele FC (Match 74).
The NNL relied on Article 14.11 of the league’s regulations to expel the club.
In a letter signed by the NNL’s Chief Operating Officer, Danlami Alanana, 1472 FC have also been fined the sum of N5 million, with the consequence that the results of all their played matches have been nullified, and unplayed fixtures cancelled.
