NPL may disqualify erring candidates, as elections hold tomorrow

He named the three candidates eligible to contest the chairmanship as Bayelsa United’s Chairman, Rumson Baribote, Enugu Rangers’ former general manager, Davidson Owumi, and a member of the board of Sunshine Stars of Akure and Special Adviser on Sports to Governor Olusegun Mimiko, Akin Akinbobola.
