“The research was conducted using the following: Corporate Social Responsibility, Kit Sponsorship deal, Functional and Interactive Website, Match Attendance/Size of the supporter base, Shirt Sponsorship deal, Brand Popularity/History, Brand Value/International Recognition, International Partnership, Club House and Titles Won,” Aikhoje said.
He added that other NPL clubs that made the elite list include Heartland, Enugu Rangers, Dolphins, 3SC, Sharks, Kano Pillars, Kwara United, Ocean Boys, Lobi Stars and Niger Tornadoes.
