HFN to Hold Players’ and Technical Representatives Election on September 15

Posted : 12 September 2025

The Handball Federation of Nigeria (HFN) has announced that elections to fill the positions of Players’ Representative and Technical Representative on its Board will be held on Monday, September 15, at the Velodrome of the MKO Abiola National Stadium, Abuja.

 

The Secretary General of the Federation, Monica Otumala, stated that the electoral process will be strictly guided by the recently released National Sports Commission (NSC) guidelines for elections into National Sports Federations. Accreditation of delegates will run from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. prompt.

 

After accreditation, voting will begin immediately. Any delegate who fails to complete accreditation within the stipulated time will not be allowed to participate.

 

Otumala explained that the election for the Technical Representative will be decided by one referee and one coach from each of the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), while the Players’ Representative will be elected by one player from each state and the FCT.

 

To ensure the integrity and smooth conduct of the elections, she stressed that every voting delegate must present an official nomination letter duly signed and stamped by their respective State Sports Councils or Commissions.

 

“There will be a thorough verification process to authenticate the source of all nomination letters presented,” she added.

 

She further explained:

“Elections into the office of the Technical Representative shall involve one referee and one coach from the 37 affiliates of HFN—that is, 36 states and the FCT—while the Athletes’ Representative election shall involve one player per state and the FCT. Every delegate coming for the election must bring a nomination letter duly signed and stamped by their State Sports Council or Commission. There will be verification of the letter to confirm its authenticity.”

 

The HFN Secretary General assured stakeholders that the elections will be conducted in line with the Federation’s constitution, emphasizing its commitment to transparency and fairness in the process.
