Lobi Stars Adopt Tafawa Balewa Stadium as Temporary Home Ground

In a strategic move to ensure a smooth 2024-25 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season, Lobi Stars have adopted the Tafawa Balewa Stadium in Bauchi as their temporary home ground. This decision comes as their original home ground, the Tour Aper Aku Stadium in Makurdi, undergoes renovation.

The Tafawa Balewa Stadium, which serves as the home ground for Nigeria National League side Wikki Tourists, will provide a temporary solution for Lobi Stars. This is not the first time the team has had to find an alternative venue, as they played their home matches at the Lafia City Stadium last season. However, with Nasarawa United, also participating in the NPFL this campaign, also calling Lafia City Stadium their home ground, a new solution was needed.

Lobi Stars will kick off their NPFL campaign at their new temporary home ground, facing off against Akwa United in their opening fixture. The team is confident that the Tafawa Balewa Stadium will provide a suitable environment for their fans and players alike, as they strive for success in the upcoming season.

This move highlights the flexibility and adaptability of Lobi Stars, as they prioritize their performance in the NPFL. The team's commitment to finding a suitable temporary home ground demonstrates their dedication to their fans and their ambition to excel in the league. As the season unfolds, Lobi Stars will look to make the Tafawa Balewa Stadium a fortress, and their fans will undoubtedly rally behind them in their new temporary home.
