Nigeria National League has reached a partnership with Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria, FRCN to broadcast the Super 8 tournament, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
The agreement with the government parastatal means live commentaries of all the Super 8 matches to be held in Enugu from June, 7-14, 2024 will be aired in a bid to create awareness of the league.
The chairman of the League Board, Mr. George Aluo said the arrangement will offer Nigerians opportunity of following the games from the kick off to the finals even as he commended the largest Radio network in Africa for the deal.
” I’m very excited with the arrangement because for the first time in the history of the league, FRCN will air our matches live. What this means is that football fans in the remotest villages of the country will follow the competition from the beginning to the end because Radio Nigeria covers all parts of the country and I must have to say a very big thank you to FRCN management.
The Super 8 tournament this year will see Beyond Limit FC, InterLagos FC, Ikorodu City, Madiba FC, Sokoto United, Nasarawa United, Sporting Supreme and El Kanemi Warriors battle for the 2023/2024 league winner and promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League.
