We're talking about going public, seems you do not know the difference between going public and having sponsors (shirt/brand). if you're talking about Shirt/Brand sponsorship, Kano Pillars have BUA GROUP sponsoring us already. BUA group produces cement, building materials and services.

So my dear, you are on a long thing. we're talking about selling our shares on the floor of the Nigerian market or allowing the fans to have a financial stalk in the club by selling the club to them, just like Lobi stars tried to do sometime ago (Going private though)

Warri Wolves Hold
Stakeholders Forum
on Tuesday
ARTICLE | NOVEMBER 4, 2013 -
2:33PM | BY IKENNA AGU
The newly appointed Managing
Director of Warri Wolves
Davidson Owumi will meet with
all the club stakeholders with a
view of fashioning a way
forward for the Club.
Those who are to grace the fact
finding mission which is
expected to start by 10.00am are
the Coaches Association, the
State League Board, the State
Referees Association, Ex-
Footballers and the Media.
According to a statement signed
by the Media Manager of the Club,
Etu Moses, only those who are
duly involved in these
associations should be present
to present their view on the way
forward.
According to Etu, it is a serious
business, the first assignment by
the new man saddled with the
responsibility of repositioning
the Club and as such, the
Management will only accredit
those who will play significant
role in the discussions.
“ Let me make it clear that the
new Managing Director is very
serious with this stakeholders
meet and as such will welcome
only those who have a role to
play by coming up with useful
suggestions on the way forward.
He is not coming to listen to why
Mr A did this and why Mr B did
that. He wants to hear how the
Club can move forward and this
is an opportunity for all to
contribute before the season
starts. I want to advise all
stakeholders to turn up in large
numbers on time and be seated
by 10.00am.’
Meanwhile, Etu has enjoined the
fans and all well wishers to wait
for the official communication
channel of the Club for any
information as regards changes
or any other thing that will
unfold as we prepare for the
coming season.
“I am saying that nothing has
happened in the Club apart from
the appointment of the new
board. This is because a
particular newspaper has been
coming out with false stories as
regards the Coaching crew and
other things. As soon as anything
happens, you will be informed
adequately so any other news is
mere rumour

Nigeria: NFF, Sports
Minister Rejects Club
Owners' Purported Sack
of League Management
Company
2 November 2013 , By Aderonke
Ogunleye, Source: Premium
Times
The Nigeria Football Federation,
NFF, and the Sports Minister,
Bolaji Abdullahi, have rejected a
declaration by owners/
managers of clubs in the
Nigeria Premier League, NPL,
'sacking' the League
Management Company (LMC),
which the NFF inaugurated last
year to administer the elite
division of Nigeria's domestic
football.
Rising from its meeting in Abuja
on Wednesday, October 30, the
club owners/managers, in their
communique, declared, "The
meeting emphasised on the
expiration of the tenure of the
LMC in line with the terms of
reference given to them by the
NFF.
"The meeting specifically
thanked the chairman and
members of the LMC for their
efforts in organising the just-
concluded league, as well as
their several innovations and
suggestions on the way
forward, and wished them well
in their future endeavours."
However, NFF President, Aminu
Maigari, stated emphatically that
the LMC remained in place.
Speaking from the United Arab
Emirates, where the Golden
Eaglets are battling to make
Nigeria the first country to win
the FIFA U-17 World Cup four
times, Mr. Maigari insisted that
the LMC was inaugurated by the
NFF, granted license by the NFF
to administer the Premier
League on its behalf, and could
only be sent packing by the NFF.
"I am shocked to hear about a
meeting of club owners/
managers where they
reportedly told the LMC to hand
over to the Secretariat of the
League. That is not within their
purview; it is the responsibility
of the NFF to determine the fate
of the LMC.
"The LMC has done very well
within the past 10 months to
reposition the Premier League,
and they deserve
commendation. The club
managers themselves admitted
that the LMC has brought
several innovations to the
running of the League. Why
would we want to throw all that
away in a hurry?
"As far as the NFF, the supreme
football-governing body in
Nigeria, is concerned, the LMC
remains firmly in place and will
have the opportunity to
continue its good works for a
period to be determined
shortly," Mr. Maigari insisted.
He called on the club owners/
managers to focus on
improving the structures of
their teams in line with the
demands of professional
football, rather than get sucked
into illusory political
manoeuvrings and hysteria.
"Sincerely speaking, the NFF will
always accord the club owners/
managers their regard and we
see them as critical stakeholders
in the development of the game
in our country. But there is an
architecture of authority, which
is not horizontal. The NFF has
prerogative on issues bordering
on the running of the game in
Nigeria and has not conceded
this authority to any other
group or body.
"Should the club managers have
any grouse with the way the
League is being administered,
they should approach the NFF
with their misgivings and we
would resolve such matters, as
we have done in the past," Mr.
Maigari said.
The Sports Minister, Mr.
Abdullahi also showered praises
on the LMC, saying, "They have
gotten money for the league
even the clubs themselves are
sharing money - sharing dollars
- and they said (LMC) should go;
where do they want them to go
to? The people that brought the
money (sponsors) will say, hope
their money will not be wasted.
I support the NFF's decision.
(club owners/managers) should
relax and face their clubs."
However, the club owners have
said that they would proceed
with the electoral process.

Crown FC of Ogbomosho have
started initiating plans to recruit
new players ahead of the
upcoming season.

The club who recently regained
promotion to the topflight have
just concluded a two-week long
players screening exercise, after
which a fair number of players
were pencilled down for
potential recruitment.
In a statement released by the
club's media officer Kunle
Oyeleye, it was stated that from
amongst the players who
impressed at the screening
exercise, a final selection of
players will be made later, based
on their performance in the NNL
Super Four.
It was further revealed that the
idea behind the screening
exercise was to give an
opportunity to talented youths to
exhibit their potentials and try
their luck with the team.
Crown FC who were relegated in
the 2010/11 season regained
promotion to the Glo Premier
League after finishing on top of
the Group B table of the Nigeria
National League (NNL).

John Obuh appears to be on a
collision course with Enugu
Rangers over contractual
disagreements.

The former Flying Eagles coach
was recently unveiled by the
management of the Flying
Antelopes, as a replacement for
Okey Emordi, who resigned at
the end of the season.

But in spite of the hype
surrounding Obuh's
appointment, the former Sharks
and Kwara United gaffer is
reportedly yet to put pen to
paper with the Enugu State-
owned club, for whom he
starred in his playing days.
Sources close to the coach have
revealed that while Rangers are
intent on offering a one-year-
deal, Obuh is holding out for a
contract with at least a two year
duration.
The source further disclosed that
Obuh is not short of offers and
may move on if necessary as
Akwa United are also keen to
bring him to Uyo, but the
tactician however has his heart
set on managing Rangers next
season.

Top officials of the Nigeria
Football Federation have revealed
that Warri Wolves will be the
fourth team to fly Nigeria's flag
on the continent next season.

There has been controversy over
who would take the continental
ticket after Enyimba finished
second in the League thus
picking a CAF Champions League
ticket and relinquished their CAF
Confederation Cup ticket after
they won the Federation Cup.

Three seasons ago, Warri Wolves
benefitted from a dubious NFF
decision that saw Sharks denied
a CAF Confederation Cup ticket
after emerging as Federation Cup
beaten finalists with eventual
winners Dolphins emerging
double champions.
However, the NFF instead of
handing Sharks the ticket for the
Federation Cup, awarded Warri
Wolves the fourth continental
ticket after they finished fourth
on the Premier league table.
"If there was a mistake in the
past, we will not continue in the
error. The rules are very clear on
who represent countries on the
continent," a top NFF official said.
"When the winner of the
Federation Cup wins the league
or finishes in the CAF champions
League region, then the
Federation Cup runners-up gets
the ticket if so presented by the
National association, so I don't
see any form of controversy here.
It is simple and clear who picks
the fourth ticket."
