Nice one but they should try and fix up their stadium instead of borrowing from AkwaIbom.
Despite all the Rivers state money ,there is no CAF approved stadium.

CAF politics

Port Harcourt stadium (adokiye amiesimaka stadium) actually hosted CAF champions league game earlier

Now they are playing CAF Conf. Cup they delayed the approval to rob them of home support

And moved the game to Uyo to undo Rivers United

It will be difficult for a Nigerian club to win it as the Nigerian economy is poor with a weak naira.
North African clubsides are heavily financed and just a player can worth more than a million dollars in North African clubsides.

Highest paid player in an African league is $1.5m per year.

You are right.

So compared to players being paid in Nigeria.
The North Africans and the South Africans will dominate African club football because of their economy.

Up Rivers United
