Delta State Government said it has given approval for Warri Wolves to participate in the 2020/2021 season of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).

The approval was one of the outcomes of the first State Executive Council meeting for 2021.

Briefing Government House reporters in Asaba, Commissioner for Information, Charles Aniagwu, said the meeting which held virtually was presided over by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa.

Aniagwu said the implication of the approval was that the Sea Siders now have the legal backing as well as the financial support of the state government to be part of the league this term.

He explained that the approval is coming this time “because when the season started last year, we were already headed towards the yuletide.

“So when the memo was written, the governor just have to approve in principle but today, exco has ratified, which means the club now has the legal backing to prosecute the season as well as make financial request in the process.”
