The Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) has summoned Lobi Stars media officer Emmanuel Ujah over his allegations of match-fixing against their players.
Ujah accused the Pride of Makurdi players of betting on league matches.
A panel has been set up for Wednesday, April 9, 2025, for Ujah to provide further clarification on the claims he made in writing and in an audio recording.
The summons letter was signed by the NPFL Chief Operating Officer, Davidson Owumi.
The summons letter reads: “We have taken note of certain issues which border on alleged match-fixing and players betting in relation to Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) matches and fixtures.
“The said report appears to contravene the League’s Code of Conduct for Officials by casting aspersions on the integrity of the NPFL and the League’s governance structure.
“These actions are considered detrimental to the reputation of the NPFL and its stakeholders.”
