Chairman of  FC Ifeanyi Ubah, Chief Ifeanyi Ubah has tendered an apology to fans, the football community and to the League Management Company (LMC). The LMC had handed a 10 match ban to Chief Ubah fining him N2.5m and also requested that he tendered an apology for his conduct during the game with Heartland. Other erring clubs and individuals also tendered apologies, leading the league body to announce a closure to the cases. Announcing the receipt of the acceptance notices and apologies from all concerned parties, Chairman of the LMC, Shehu Dikko remarked that the sanctions were not meant to be punitive but correctional and, ”˜to uphold the sanctity of the rules of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) and to assure all stakeholders of fairness in the application of all laid down regulations.’ Mr Dikko further stated that with the closure of all the cases, he hopes the issues will be put behind by the aggrieved parties. He urged all stakeholders in the league to direct their focus to the beautiful sides of the NPFL games even as the lessons will remain, to avert future occurrence from any quarter. Dr. Ubah in his letter of apology accepted to submit to the summary jurisdiction of the LMC and pledged not to appeal the decision tendering an unconditional apology to the LMC, FC Ifeanyi Ubah fans and the football community while explaining that his actions were due to his overriding passion for the NPFL and its development. ”˜May I conclude by rendering my unconditional apology to my numerous fans nationwide and in Diaspora for the incident and outcome. To the football family and the LMC, I promise to uphold the tenets of the game while promising to remain a good ambassador of the sport. To those who feel disappointed by the outcome, I plead that you find a place in your hearts to forgive me. 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,’ Chief Ubah wrote in the letter dated April 2 and addressed to the LMC Chief Operating Officer.
