Jigawa Golden Stars Football Club has sought the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Appeal Committee to issue a decision on the disagreement surrounding their postponed match against Gombe United.
In a statement made in Dutse, the club’s spokesperson, Ibrahim Isyaku, emphasised the need of reaching an agreement before the scheduled return fixture.
He recalled that the first-leg match, played on March 7, 2025, in Gombe, was abandoned following an incident on the field.
The NFF Complaints Committee later found in favour of Golden Stars, fined Gombe United N2.5 million, and ordered the remaining matches to be played at a neutral location.
“Gombe United, however, appealed the decision to the NFF Appeal Committee,” Isyaku stated, noting that no final decision has yet been announced.
He called on the NFF to postpone the return match until the appeal is resolved, while reaffirming the team’s commitment to earning promotion back to the Nigeria Premier Football League.
“Golden Stars remain focused on achieving our goal despite the ongoing uncertainty,” he added.
