The football clubs have to be accredited - Content creator explains
According to Paul Fakayejo, Lagos Liga cannot become a permanent football league unless football clubs are accredited.
"They have to go through a lot, from accreditation from Nigeria League, CAF etc. Each club will need a stadium to become a normal league. And I’m sure if CAF didn’t come they would be aware of the name since they are the body of leagues in Africa."
