Another source revealed that they are in darkness of the payment since they have announced that the governor had release the money.

“Who do we believe now? Everybody has been calling me over the lied payment. I don’t know where the press saw what they reported but what I know is that we have not been paid and it’s a bad situation.

 

“I think this is not encouraging at all. We are like slave in the club where nobody cares for our living as a professional. And this is what make most of us run to slavery deal outside the country.

 

Another player lamented that the club has really dealt with their career over the non payment of wages.

"We dont even know what is happening about the payment, nobody has called us to explain why we have not been paid. "My family had called me thinking that I lied to them that I dont want to do my responsibility. We are tired.
