TPL | Zikoko!

A lot of events happened on the 19th and 20th of December. Most of them were sports-related. Apart from the sporting activities, it was a time for people to eat good food, while in good company, friends to meet-up and the single ones to find the bae!
At Twitter Premier League (TPL6).

The kickoff in high heels.

The cheerleaders.

These ladies with beach bods to die for!

And the winner of Copa Lagos 2015 is…. The Beach Elephants from Cote d’ivoire!

These all look like fun. If you didn’t attend any, you should definitely make plans to attend next year!
Twitter Premier League came along a year ago and gave us something to be excited about.
The inaugural TPL edition happened in May 2014, at Meadow Hall, Lekki; with four teams participating: The Guns, The Rebels, the Blues and The Red Devils.
The 5th edition was held in September, at the Campos Mini Stadium, Lagos Island. It was arguably the biggest TPL yet.
It brought lovers of social media and football together.
it was also a place to catch up with friends and make new friends, set p and physically meet those you’ve been chatting with in DMs, while enjoying good food and watching live matches.
But recently there were talks of some teams being dissatisfied with the TPL management policies.
5 of the original 6 TPL teams defected. But to where?
Then came The SociaLiga.

#SOCIALIGA 💪💪💪💪💪 pic.twitter.com/dDxgf6kcPa
— Nọsike Nwigene (@nnwigene) November 17, 2015

Yup! We got our answer.

Nigerians react.

Some wondered what Socialiga is.

And got answers.

@AfroVII I'm confused. I thought TPL rebranded to Socialiga after the schism. Which is which?
— K (@Damocleansword) November 17, 2015

As well as how it was formed.

There's been a split. 5 of the original 6 make up the #SociaLiga https://t.co/UBV8E3NeOY
