Sporting Lagos faces consequences following their breach of NPFL24 rules and regulations during their match against Heartland.
The Lagos club incurred the league’s wrath when their supporters disrupted the game by hurling objects onto the field.
This breach led to an official fine of N1 million imposed on Sporting Lagos for their failure to ensure adequate security measures.
Elegbetetv understands that the club has now been mandated to settle the fine within 14 days to avoid further penalties.
They’re required to revamp their matchday security protocols and conduct a reorientation program for their supporters.
The league authorities sternly cautioned Sporting Lagos, warning of harsher repercussions for any future violations.
Sporting Lagos holds a brief window of 48 hours to appeal this penalty. Despite the league’s decision, this sanction drew widespread criticism from Nigerians.
