According to Vanguard, One of the players who spoke to journalist on condition of anonymity said the protest was to appeal to the state government to pay their salaries and allowances to enable them survive.
“This protest is an appeal and we are not fighting the government. We have been working without pay, how do they expect us to survive?
“Most of us have families and we are the bread winners of our various families, so, we have to survive.
