Ranchers Bees, co-owned by Super Eagles striker Sadiq Umar, today won promotion to the NPFL.
The Kaduna-based club, who gave former Super Eagles World Cup star Daniel Amokachi, won NNL Conference D to gain promotion.
Despite losing 2-0 at relegated Gombe United today, they finished with 20 points from 12 matches, two points more than closest rivals Adamawa United.
Interestingly, all four clubs promoted to the top league this season are privately owned – Doma United, Inter Lagos, Sporting Lagos and Ranchers Bees.
