The draw ceremony for the 2025/2026 Nigeria National League (NNL) Super 4 is set to take place today at the Marriott Hotel Lagos, with the championship playoff scheduled to run from May 1 to May 8, 2026.

Four clubs—Doma United, Inter Lagos, Sporting Lagos, and Ranchers Bees—will compete for the overall title after securing promotion to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL).

The teams qualified after topping their respective groups in the regular season. Inter Lagos recorded eight wins, five draws, and three losses to finish with 29 points in the Southern Conference, while Sporting Lagos topped their group with 36 points from six wins, three draws, and four defeats.

In the Northern Conference, Doma United amassed 26 points from seven wins, two draws, and four losses, while Ranchers Bees secured top spot with 20 points, recording six wins, two draws, and four away defeats.

Notably, all four promoted clubs are privately owned—marking a significant shift in Nigerian club football and signaling growing private sector involvement in the game.

Top sports administrators are expected at the draw, including Director General of the National Sports Commission, Bukola Olopade, and President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Ibrahim Gusau.

Also expected are former Super Eagles stars, including Victor Ikpeba, popularly known as the “Prince of Monaco,” alongside other key stakeholders in the football industry.
