Ranchers Bees proprietor Sadiq Umar has directed that all leadership positions within the club be suspended pending further clarification.
In a letter sent to the club’s Elders Forum, Umar stated that no individual should be recognised in any official capacity, including as chairman, supporters’ leader or fans’ leader, until a formal announcement is made by his office.
The move, according to the club, is part of efforts to streamline and define its leadership structure.
The development comes as Ranchers Bees prepare for their return to the Nigeria Premier Football League for the 2026/27 season after a 20-year absence.
The Kaduna-based side last competed in the top flight during the 2009/10 campaign.
