THATS PURE CRAP/LIE 100%... NOT EVERY NIGERIAN IS CORRUPT, DONT TALK RUBBISH. I HAVE SEEN A UNIVERSITY LECTURER WHO REFUSED TO ACCEPT BRIBE FROM HIS STUDENTS, HE BLUNTLY TOLD HIS STUDENTS ALL HIS CHILDREN ARE GRADUATES AND HE DOESNT NEED BRIBE MONEY FOR ANYTHING AND THE SALARY HE RECEIVES IS MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR HIM AND HIS WIFE... I HAVE SEEN A POLICE GUY THAT REFUSED TO TAKE BRIBE FROM ONE OF OUR VILLAGE CHIEFS TO NAIL AN INNOCENT POOR GUY. I HAVE SEEN MANY HONEST NIGERIANS WITHIN AND OUTSIDE MY STATE OF ORIGIN, COMING ONLINE TO SAY 100% OF NIGERIANS ARE CORRUPT IS PURE BULSHIIIT. MAYBE YOU ARE TOO CORRUPT YOU CAN SELL YOUR MOTHER FOR MONEY, THAT DOES NOT MEAN EVERY NIGERIAN IS LIKE YOU.

What is it with this all caps

It is not just viable to venture into that or the whole process is not feasible and credible so it cannot be listed for now.

True...but i am talking about local coverage...Nta,ait et al which of course you have to agree is very very poor

Talking about local TV coverage, I did my IT at NTA Ibadan some years ago & I remember very well how we were chased away by fans with stones while preparing our equipment to cover a crucial match between Prime FC & Sunshine in Oshogbo. Taiwo Ogunjobi was also present at d stadium & he advised us to leave when the fans started throwing stones and sticks.

ZUBY77: I can see countries like Algeria, Egypt, Kenya, Morocco, South Africa and Tunisia listed there . I asked this because i read sometime ago that Nigerian league is the best in Africa.

Mods please promote this to the frontpage.

May be our league is not all rhat highly rated after all
Re: Why Is Nigerian Premier League Not Listed On Livescore.com by favouryemmy: 10:14am On Sep 21, 2012
dont know why, but goal.com gives u livescores of NPL matches.
Re: Why Is Nigerian Premier League Not Listed On Livescore.com by dolarpo(m): 9:36pm On Sep 29, 2012
drzed: Livescore.com is not a charity. No matter how strongly NPL is rated, it will need to be commercially viable for them to consider having correspondents who will post minute by minute scores unto the website. This is one thing.

The second thing is reliability and professionalism. The question now is, do we have reliable and professional people in Nigeria willing to visit each match and post updates of scores, cards, etc unto the livescore website? (hint: the answer does not start with letter 'Y').

Having said that, it is not a bad idea for someone to take this as a business 'opporcho' to approach livescore.com and offer his/her services. But it must be commercially viable for both parties. Livescore.com is not obliged to post live feeds of the NPL games simply because of any FIFA, IFFHS or NEPA ranking.

So whoever sees this as a viable business can (and should easily be able to) convince livescore.com that:

1). Nigeria has a large football following and having the local league scores on their website will be useful/profitable
2). Nigeria has the largest (and fastest growing) internet and mobile web market in Africa, so accessibility is not an issue
3). There'll be local companies who will be happy to advertise, if items 1 and 2 above can drive Nigerian traffic to livescore.com
4). The perpetually corrupt NPL and NFA bodies can be approached to subsidise the costs of having web 'correspondents' at each game
5). The proprietors of newspapers in Nigeria should be happy to use RSS to syndicate livescore.com results IF they pay a fee

Omo, if to say I get di time now, business don start be dat o!

Hope someone can take this up. I am a long time fan/user of livescore.com and it wont hurt once in a while to know the scores between Warri Warriors FC vs. Borno Bombers United grin
