Promoted Nigeria Premier Football League side Ranchers Bees have suspended recognition of all existing leadership positions within the club as part of efforts to reorganise their administrative structure ahead of the new season.
Club proprietor Sadiq Umar announced the decision in an official letter addressed to the Kaduna-based club’s Elders Forum.
According to the directive, no individual should henceforth be recognised as chairman, supporters’ leader, fans’ leader or holder of any other leadership position until further notice.
Umar explained that the measure is intended to provide clarity regarding the club’s leadership framework as preparations intensify for their return to top-flight football.
“The club is currently working to streamline and clarify its leadership structure,” the statement noted.
Ranchers Bees are set to compete in the 2026/27 NPFL season after securing promotion and ending a two-decade absence from Nigeria’s elite division.
The Kaduna outfit last featured in the NPFL during the 2009/10 campaign and will be aiming to establish themselves once again among the country’s top clubs.
