Akwa Starlets recorded their first win in the top flight, courtesy of a lone goal scored by Isaac George, to see off visiting FC Ifeanyiubah, in a Matchday 4 fixture decided at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo on Thursday.
The League Management Company (LMC) has approved the change of name of Akwa Starlets to Dakkada International FC in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).
According to a letter signed by LMC’s Chief Operating Officer (COO), Salihu Abubakar and addressed to all NPFL clubs, the approval was given after the club complied with LMC requirements.
Enyimba will be the first opponent to face the third-placed Dakkada Int’l FC on Sunday when the two sides meet in a Match Day Eight fixture in Uyo.
Meanwhile, LMC have given provisional approval for Delta Force to be changed to Kwara United in the NPFL.
The LMC also approved the Ilorin Township Stadium as the venue for Kwara United home games this season.
Kwara United started the season in the Nigeria National League (NNL) where they defeated Gombe United in their first game before acquiring the NPFL status of Delta Force.
