The Acting Secretary of the Nigeria Premier League Club Owners Association, Alloy Chukwuemeka, has resigned.
Chukwuemeka confirmed his resignation in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday in Ilorin.
He said his resignation became necessary after ABS FC’s relegation from the premier league was ratified by the Nigeria Football Association, during its Annual General Meeting in Warri, Delta on Thursday.
Chukwuemeka stressed that as the General Manager of ABS, it was no longer possible for him to retain the position of acting secretary since his club had been relegated.
It was against the backdrop of the team’s relegation that the ABS general manager tendered his letter of resignation on Thursday.
According to the letter, “you will recall that my nomination to the position of Ag. Secretary was based on the resolution by the entire Chairmen and Managers of the 20 clubs of which I was a member.
“Consequently, on my honour and based on principles, I hereby step down from my position following the relegation of my club.”
The former Yobe Desert Stars Media Officer thanked members of the Association for their cooperation.
He also extended his appreciation to all the stakeholders in the football family, as well as the media.
The ABS helmsman told NAN that his major assignment would be how to bring the team back to the premier league.
NAN reports that ABS got relegated at the end of the 2012/2013 Globacom Premier League season after they finished in the 18th position on the league’s standings.
