Ms. Modupe Shabi, the NWFL Chief Operating Officer, indicated that the Secretariat has already begun making necessary adjustments to competition logistics to accommodate the revised league structure.
Shabi underscored the importance of strict adherence to these administrative requirements, stating they are vital for maintaining a credible league system and supporting the long-term growth of women’s football across Nigeria.
