The zonal play-offs of the forthcoming Naija Super 8 football competition have been moved from Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo, to Eket Township Stadium holding between June 1st and 3rd
This was announced yesterday by Flykite Productions,the organisers of the tournament
According to Jenkins Alumona, the company’s Managing Director, explained that the venue change was compelled by the decision of
the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to use Godswill Akpabio
International Stadium as the venue for its Super League and its demand that the facility be refurbished ahead of the competition
The managers of Godswill Akpabio International Stadium informed us that the facility has been chosen as the venue for the CAF Super League and it will need to be refurbished ahead of the competition.
“This has left us with no option than to move the play-offs to Eket which, thankfully, has a great facility and is close to Uyo.
The Eket Township Stadium, which was completed less than a year ago, is in good shape.
“Eket is also a football location and we assure fans that they will have a great time watching the play-offs,” Alumona was quoted as saying.
