The strategic partner of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), GTI TNFF, has disclosed that it spent close to N1 billion naira to put together the league last season.
The company, which is a subsidiary of GTI Group, made the disclosure in a statement on Tuesday. The statement said that the N1 billion was spent on various aspects of the league, including logistics, marketing, and broadcasting.
The statement also said that GTI TNFF is planning to spend 5 billion naira on the NPFL next season. This includes a prize money of 150 million naira for the champions.
We are committed to the development of the NPFL and we believe that this investment will help to improve the quality of the league,” the statement said.
The statement added that GTI TNFF is also working to improve the infrastructure of the NPFL, including the stadiums and training facilities.
The investment by GTI TNFF is a welcome development for the NPFL. The league has been struggling in recent years, and this investment could help to turn things around.
The increased investment will hopefully lead to improved standards of play, better facilities, and more attractive sponsorship deals. This could help to attract more fans to the league and boost its popularity.
It is important to note that the 5 billion naira investment is still in the planning stages. It is not yet clear how the money will be spent or when it will be spent. However, the announcement is a positive sign for the future of the NPFL.
