This was contained in a statement signed by the club’s media officer, Albert Dakup.
According to the statement, the club’s General Manager, Pius Henwan gave the directive while addressing players and coaches of the team.
He warned that anybody who is not ready to work for the collective aspirations of the team, will be shown the way out.
“Plateau United is a big brand in Nigerian football and any of you who is not ready to defend the colours of the club, should just bore out.
“Some of you are injured or sick since we returned from Tanzania but it seems others decided to exclude themselves from training under the guise of been injured. Such indiscipline will not be condoned here and anyone found wanting will be decisively dealt with,” he said.
He disclosed that the team must recoup the three points in their next away match and until that is achieved, the players will remain on half salary.
