The Nigeria Women’s Football League (NWFL) has concluded plans to partner with KC Gaming Network, owner of Bet9ja as title sponsor of the women’s top flight football in the country.
Chairman of the Nigeria Women Football League Chief (Mrs) Dilichukwu Onyedinma disclosed this after a meeting with the management of the company in Lagos, saying necessary arrangements have been put in place for the formal signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) expected to hold in few days’ time.
“We have been discussing with them (Bet9ja), and there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. We are now set to make it public and the Memorandum of Understanding would soon be signed,” Onyedinma is quoted as saying on thenff.com.
She continued: “This is a good thing for our Women Football League, and whatever that accrues from the deal will go a long way to reduce the burden of our clubs. I want to thank our various clubs for their patience and support; and to the Chairman of the KC Gaming Network, Mr. Kunle Soname for believing in women football in the country”.
Chairman of KC Gaming Network, Mr. Soname, responded: ““It is no gainsaying that our girls have been the most successful among all our national teams.
“…we felt that the best thing we can do as an organization is to support the League that has been producing these players that have been positively projecting the image of this country. This is our little way of giving back to the society and also ensuring that the girls are further empowered through the game of football.”
