In a public message, Dr. Nongu advised the incoming team to work collaboratively to ensure effective performance, emphasizing that leadership, which he believes comes from God, should unite rather than divide.

Dr. Nongu reaffirmed his unshaken loyalty to His Excellency, Rev. Fr. Dr. Hyacinth Alia, and the Benue State government, pledging full support for every initiative, particularly those advancing youth and sports development. He also committed to supporting and cooperating with the next appointed leader of Lobi Stars, stressing that progress is a continuum achievable only through harmonious efforts toward restoring the club’s glory and projecting Benue’s image through football.
The former chairman took responsibility for the club’s relegation on behalf of the board and concluded with prayers for the government, Governor Alia, Lobi Stars FC, and the people of Benue State, seeking divine blessings for their continued success.
