The 2014/2015 season of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), will kick off this weekend as scheduled.
This was rubber-stamped during the Club Owners/League Managers meeting in Abuja on Thursday.
There were uncertainties over when the league will resume, after some club officials insisted on a date after the general elections.
“What I can only tell you is that the league season will start on Saturday with the star match being the clash between Heartland and Kano Pillars. Other details of the meeting you get to hear about it later after I have met with other members for ratification,” Acting Secretary of the Club Owners, All Chukwuemeka told Goal.
Kano Pillars, who have won the Nigerian Premier League for three consecutive seasons, kick off the new campaign with a star match against Heartland at the Dan Anyiam Stadium in Owerri on Saturday.
