The Osun State Government is under pressure to mediate a financial dispute worth N15 million between Osun Babes Football Club and Imo Strikers Queens FC. The disagreement stems from an agreement to exchange a league spot, according to the DAILY POST. Imo Strikers Queens claims Osun Babes has not paid the outstanding amount, while the former club asserts it has acknowledged the debt in writing.
The matter involves a commitment to settle the debt by the end of the 2025/2026 Premier League season, but Imo Strikers asserts the deadline has passed with no payment. The dispute is causing financial strain on Imo Strikers Queens, impacting its ability to pay players, coaches, and staff. The club has given the Osun State Government, relevant sports authorities, and the Nigeria Women’s Football League 14 days to address the issue or face further legal action.
