The chairman of the Interim Management Committee (IMC) Hon. Gbenga Elegbeleye has said that any club that fail to meet the standard set for facilities will have to choose another venue for their home games, BSNSports.com.ng report.

Some clubs played their home matches away from home last season after they failed to meet up with the requirements.

While addressing the press after the meeting with the representatives of 20 NPFL Clubs in Abuja, the chairman said the clubs have been informed about the development.

"We discussed club licensing and facilities, we made the clubs understand that if their stadium failed to meet the required standard they have to go and play in another venue.

"We want to put our league matches on the television and the pitch must be television friendly because for the whole world to see Nigerian league, we want the players to be exposed to the world", he insisted.
