Ubah in a letter accepting to submit to the summary jurisdiction of the LMC pledged not to appeal the decision and offering an unconditional apology to the LMC, FC IfeanyiUbah fans and the football community while explaining that his actions were due to his overriding passion for the NPFL and its development.
“With a deep sense of humility, I ask Nigerians for their support and encouragement as I wish to state categorically that this will never repeat itself again as dire lessons have been learnt,” Ubah wrote in the letter dated April 2 and addressed the LMC Chief Operating Officer.
You will recall that Heartland, Ifeanyiubah, Plateau United and Sunshine Stars of Akure were the clubs sanctioned by the LMC for various infractions of the NPFL rulebook ranging from failure to control players and allowing access to unauthorized areas and security breaches at match venue leading to acts capable of bringing the league to disrepute.
Also Individuals sanctioned include the Proprietor of FC Ifeanyiubah, Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah, Heartland’s goalkeeper, Ebele Obi and the Media Officer of Rangers International, Forster Chime who was fined for comments disparaging a Referee.
