The Locker Room Bonus initiative, launched in Abuja earlier this month, guarantees 56,000 direct mobile-money payments to 20 players and three technical staff from every winning NNL team — 1,288,000 in total per match. With 292 games scheduled, over 369m will go directly to players and staff this season. Another 100m will support league operations, while 8.1m is reserved for end-of-season awards.
For the NNL, the deal is about more than cash; it represents professionalism and transparency. Club officials have already been trained on the Locker Room Bonus platform, which digitises line-up verification and automates payments, ensuring instant rewards for players.
