NPFL SET FOR TWO-CITY TROPHY CELEBRATIONS AS TITLE RACE GOES TO THE WIRE.

The Nigeria Premier Football League has confirmed plans for simultaneous trophy
presentations in Lagos and Port Harcourt as the 2025/26 title race heads into a
decisive final day.

The championship is still between Enugu Rangers and Rivers United F.C., with both
sides playing away from each other in Sunday’s finale.

Rangers face Ikorodu City F.C. in Lagos, while Rivers United host Katsina United
F.C. in Port Harcourt.

League COO Davidson Owumi said the body has ensured identical trophies and full
presentation setups are ready in both cities to avoid delays in crowning a champion.

“We don’t have a replica; we have two trophies. One trophy goes to Lagos and the
other goes to Port Harcourt,” Owumi said. “Whichever centre the title is decided, we
are fully prepared.”

The league says all arrangements are in place for a dramatic conclusion to a season
that goes down to the final whistle.
