Nigerian Football Stakeholders Voice Out Concerns Against NFF President
Oru Leonard
With appropriations made in millions of dollars annually for football in Nigeria, Amaju Pinnick and his board members have been receiving these amounts in the tune of billions of naira appropriated legally to the N.F.A (Nigeria Football Association) while they spend these huge sums as the N.F.F (Nigeria Football Federation). The Federation is now going to the streets exclaiming ‘interference’ when they actually owe existence and recognition to the Government of Nigeria.
The N.F.F have turned a blind eye to their illegitimacy due to the illegal status on which they stand and are still being seen as wanting not to obey the supremacy of Nigeria’s law.
“We urge the Federal Government to ask EFCC and ICPC to immediately conduct a forensic audit on the NFF and the wanton financial mismanagement and misappropriation going on in the Glass House. They would be shocked to find an unprecedented level of theft.
“All their books are cooked, from the monies received from sponsors, and even the Government”, the source concluded.
The current board are looking to illegally cling to power instead of conducting an election this year, as scheduled in the Federation’s Calendar.
