By Admin

Following non-approval of Moshood Abiola Stadium by the African football governing body, El-Kanemi Warriors could host Beninoise club, Dadje FC in their CAF Confederation Cup clash at the Remo Stars Stadium, Ikenne.

The first leg of the preliminary round encounter was initially scheduled to hold at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja.

According to reports, CAF has, however, failed to approve the stadium following the bumpy nature of the pitch.

The encounter is slated for next weekend while the reverse fixture will hold in Cotonou on August 25.

The winner will face RS Berkane of Morocco in the second preliminary round.
