      • The 2012 Nigeria Premier League is the 41st season of the competition since its inception, and the 22nd since the rebranding of the league as the "Professional League".
      Sixteen teams from the previous season and four teams promoted from the Nigeria National League
      (Akwa United, Rising Stars, Jigawa Golden Stars and Wikki Tourists) are participating in this season.
      The season was originally due to start November 26, 2011, less than a month after the conclusion of the previous season due to many long delays by the NFF. The date was pushed back to January 2012 to give time to organize and to sort out the league's sponsorship and scheduled to run to July.
