On Wednesday, August 17, 2016, the League Management Company (LMC) announced the readmission of Giwa FC to the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).

The body saddled with running the top-flight football in Nigeria made the announcement on its official Twitter handle, @LMC, writing, “LMC’s Notice to Clubs on Giwa FC readmission as directed by Plateau Court.”

The LMC further stated that players of Giwa FC now with other clubs in the league can longer feature in matches as the court order takes immediate effect.

The league company also stated that “processes to reschedule matches concerning (the) Jos side (are) now being activated as directed by (the) Plateau State Court.”

Giwa FC were thrown out of the league in May this year after they failed to honour three cumulative matches following their banishment to Ilorin over crowd trouble in their home game against Enugu Rangers leading to the abandonment of the match.

Since the announcement was made few hours ago, Nigerian football fans have been commenting on the decision on social media.

Below are some of the comments on Twitter:
