By this latest action, CAF has exposed the league management company LMC and the club Owners Association of Nigeria who claimed that CAF has given Nigeria a deadline of August 2020, to submit their CAF Champions league entries prompting their decision to end the Nigeria premier league NPFL with 15 matches left to go.

CAF’s latest pronouncement has further exposed the LMC and the Club owners as our investigation also revealed that the document being flaunted by these bodies were the original CAF Calendar that was drafted before the start of the 2019/2020 season, without taking into consideration the sudden outbreak of the Corona virus pandemic.
