Frank Ilaboya tapped to revamp NPFL

Honourable Frank Ilaboya, a former leader of the Edo State FA, has been chosen to join the Nigeria Football Federation's (NFF) ad hoc committee on the league.

The seasoned journalist and administrator was appointed, according to the letter of appointment dated October 26, 2022 and signed by the NFF General Secretary, Dr. Muhammed Sanusi, because of the NFF President's great regard for him.

The letter reads in part: “your appointment for this sensitive assignment is as a result of the high confidence the NFF President reposes in your person and I believe you will work diligently to take decisions that are in the best interest of Nigerian football.”

The Committee’s mandate, according to Dr Sanusi is to “sit down with the League Management Company (LMC), to look into the License Agreement between the NFF and the LMC.”

In his response, Ilaboya, an Executive Director of Edo State Sports Commission and immediate past Chairman of Owan West Local Govt Area, promised to join hands with other Committee members to deliver on this onerous task.

He said:” I am a part of the football family and a strong believer of the Nigerian league. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute my quota to the development of the NPFL. As always,

“I will apply myself diligently to the task at hand, working with other committee members to deliver on the mandate given to us. Those who know me know I apply myself 100% to any cause I believe in, and this assignment is one such.

“I also want to thank the NFF President, Alhaji Ibrahim Gusau, and the Executive Committee Members for the confidence in my person.”

It would be recalled that the new NFF President, on the assumption of office said one of his immediate challenges is to re-position the nation’s domestic league. 

Only last week, President Gusau inaugurated the Interim League Management body headed by Hon Gbenga Elegbeleye, a former Director General of the defunct National Sports Commission (NSC).
