Abdulrahman Abdulsalam, the welfare officer of Sunshine Stars FC, has been charged by the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) for breaching the league’s Framework and Rules.
The charges stem from an investigation into the Matchday 19 fixture between Sunshine Stars and Ikorodu City, where Abdulsalam’s conduct, including public statements, was deemed to have fallen below the expected standards of professionalism.
The NPFL Framework and Rules explicitly mandate all participants, including club officials, to uphold professional conduct and refrain from making public statements that could harm the league’s image or bring the game into disrepute.
Abdulsalam will now face disciplinary proceedings, where he will have the opportunity to present his defense. The NPFL will determine the appropriate sanctions based on the findings of the investigation.
This action by the NPFL underscores the league’s commitment to maintaining a high level of professionalism and integrity among all stakeholders.
