OFFICIALS of Niger Tornadoes have informed that they are in the dark regarding their participation of the Shehu Dikko Cup in Kaduna, reports NaijaSportsXtra.blogspot.com.
The Bala Abubakar team are currently in Ijebu-Ode were they took part in the Gold Cup Pre-season Tournament.
A top official of the club said:"To be honest with you, it's laughable as I read it in one of the sporting papers this (Tuesday) morning. We never got a correspondence from the organizes either by mail or text message, let alone inform them of our participation.
"We usually play pre-season games in Kaduna, and the only invitation we got was that of the Gold Cup which we are taking part in Ijebu-Ode.
"How on earth would the organizers tell the media that Tornadoes and the quartet of Wikki Tourist, Rivers United, FC Ifeanyi Ubah and Katsina United will be taking part in the pre-season tournament in Kaduna.
"Today is the 29th and they expect us to be in Kaduna to participate in a tourney that would start the next day."
The tournament is to run from November 30-December 5 with matches slated to hold at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium, Kaduna.
