Clubs’ managers, Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) officials and other stakeholders in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) will gather in Ibadan for the league’s yearly general meeting (AGM), which has the draw for the 2026/27 NPFL season fixtures as part of the agenda.
The AGM is the business assembly of the NPFL at which the board and clubs’ leadership review the concluded season and ratify the policy direction for the incoming season.
For the past four seasons, NPFL Chairman Gbenga Elegbeleye has steadied the rudders of the big league, establishing a stable calendar that has seen the season kick off in August and conclude in May.
Reflecting on the performance, Elegbeleye said: “Our modest achievement includes putting the NPFL on a stable calendar since the 2023/24 season. It is a major shift from the era of never knowing when the season will be concluded.”
He also pointed to his promise at inception to ensure live broadcast coverage of the league, stating that “We have succeeded to a large extent in this direction but still have much more work to do”.
At the AGM, the Chief Operating Officer, Davidson Owumi, will present the technical and operations report, while GTI Assets Management will be presenting the financial report.
The fixtures draw for the 2026/27 season would be held following the earlier announcement of dates for kickoff.
The AGM will be held at the Professor Theophilus Ogunlesi Events Hall, opposite the University College Hospital, Ibadan.
