Staff to the Kwara State Governor, Alhaji Toyin
Sanusi, heads the new management team. The State Commissioner for Sports and Youth
Development, Hajia Ramat Abaya, has also
being included in the new management team.

governing the constitution of club
management in the Premier League in Article
1.9 (4) which states that: Government functionaries viz:
Commissioners, Special Advisers, shall not
be part of club management. However, head of the new management team
Sanusi told journalists at Government House,
Ilorin, that the new management team was
set up to reposition the team, adding that
Aluko’s board will remain in an advisory
position. Chairman of the LMC, Nduka Irabor, claimed he
is not privy to the reported development when
contacted by supersport.com. “We’re yet to be informed about any
development at Kwara United,” Irabor said. According to Article 1.9 (5), Kwara United risk
suspension from the league if found guilty. Aluko, who was appointed in 2012, is
supposed to serve for four years based on
Article 1.9 (2). Kwara United are ranked 6th on the Glo
Premier League log with 35 points from 23
