Nigeria Nation-wide league Secretariat has formally withdrawn APA UNITED FC of Otukpo Benue state from the on-going league following the club's refusal to honour their first league match of the season against Dreams International FC of Makurdi on the 8th May, 2015.
In a statement signed by the Executive Secretary of the NNWL, Olushola Ogunnowo,
"the refusal of APA United contravened Article 2:06 and 4:12 of the NNWL rules and regulations.
Sequel to that, the board had directed the Secretariat to take necessary action in other to fill the vacuum that might be created due to their withdrawal to forestall breach of agreement with its partners."
It is not really clear why the management of the club decided to withdraw it from the on-going abridged season of the Nation-wide league which began on the 7th of May, 2015.The club has since been replaced by Lobi Junior FC of Makurdi, a club from the same zone.
