NNL clarifies reason for league halt

For this reason, the remaining crucial three matches will not be decided until various protest cases filed by different clubs are dispensed off by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Disciplinary Committee which has not sat for a long time now following the crises that rocked the football house.
Consequently, the outstanding Week 26 match and also Weeks 29 and 30 season-ending matches respectively will only be played after the cases have been decided to ensure that there will not be issues at the end of the competition.
Already, all the teams have been put on notice by the NNL secretary, Lawrence Katken who assured that the protest cases will be treated by the relevant body within two weeks even as he disclosed that the league was stopped to have a clear picture of the league table and to avoid giving an undue advantage to any club before the final three matches are decided.
