Sabo Babayaro has dissociated himself from a report carried by The Punch newspaper dated 24th of April 2013 where he was quoted as saying :<br /><br />''The LMC has good intentions and we started on the right lane but along the line we veered off the mark. <br /><br />''The LMC derailed because decisions were taken without due consultation or meetings of the committee. I support the club<br />managers because we are the owners of the league ''<br /><br />Babayaro said :'' I will like to make it clear that I never at anytime spoke with anybody from Punch Newspaper and since I assumed my role as the vice chairman of the LMC, I have not conducted an interview on the LMC and it&rdquo;s mode of operations. <br /><br />''As a matter of fact the name Pius Anyior is alien to me because I have never met him or heard his name before not until that evening before the meeting&nbsp; when he was having some quarrel with the vice chairman of Warri Wolves, Alex and Mike Idoko on allegations that I stopped the LMC from signing a sponsorship deal with Harp Lager Beer, right there I asked them to ask him if he knows me(Babayaro) the man he quoted, I left them, signed the attendance register and went into the<br />meeting room with Mike Idoko. <br /><br />''Regarding the press briefing by club owners I was out of town when it was conducted as I left Abuja around 6am to catch up with a meeting slated for 8:30am in Kaduna.<br /><br />''I don&rsquo;t know who spoke on my behalf to the press and where he got the quotes attributed to me, lodged at a separate hotel<br />from other club owners and during the course of the meeting I faulted the divisions where some groups were holding sub meetings while the meeting was ongoing.<br /><br />''Evenwhen the club owners threatened to abandon the league, I made it clear that I and my team(Kaduna United) will honor each and every of our fixtures home and away and we will walk-over&nbsp; teams who fail to turn up.<br /><br />''I attended the meeting of the club owners on the grounds of allegations and reports that I signed on behalf of the club owners on the LMC board, and at the meeting I made it clear that I signed on the registration of the LMC board with the CAC in my capacity as the vice chairman of the LMC with no shares attached. <br /><br />''I will also like to say here that if Pius Anyior refuses to write a report apologizing to me for quoting me without speaking with me, I will be forced to take legal actions against him for soiling my 35 year hard earned reputation in sports in Nigeria.''
