The Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) has fined Osun Babes FC ₦2.5 million after their 2025/2026 Premiership match against FC Robo Queens failed to hold in Lagos.

The match, scheduled for Wednesday, 18 February 2026, at Onikan Stadium, was called off because Osun Babes did not provide an alternative set of jerseys, despite a confirmed colour clash with the home team. As a result, the officials awarded a walkover to FC Robo Queens.

The league said Osun Babes violated its rules by failing to use their second-choice kit for an away match and by not honouring the fixture without a valid reason. The club was fined ₦1 million for the jersey breach and ₦1.5 million for failing to play the match.
