Now that the League have ended,what is the interpretation (E.g In Premiers league ,Ports mouth =Relegated. Chelsea ,Totenhanm,Man u and Arsenal to the Champions league.)
and who joins the league in place of the relegated teams and from where?.

I think I can try answering your questions as far as I know.

Enyimba FC and Kano Pillars advances to represent the Nation in the CAF Champions League.

Sunshine United to represent Nigeria in the CAF confederation Cup

Ocean Boys,Wikki Tourist,Gateway and Ranchers bees are all relegated to the Nigeria National League

Relegated teams are relegated to the Nigeria National league,Since 1997, the league has been split into 1A for Northern teams and 1B for southern teams. The top two from each division are promoted to the Nigerian Premier League the next season. The exceptions were the 2005-06 and 2006-07 seasons where there were four divisions of eight teams each, with each division winner winning promotion. Up to four teams in each division are relegated each season to the Amateur First Division. The league was renamed June 19, 2008.
