NFF Board Dares Nigerian Government by Bash92(m): 6:47pm On Jul 18, 2014 |
After holding hours of meeting, the embattled board of the Nigeria football federation led by Aminu Maigari have called for a government probe into their finances. The Maigari-led NFF have been accused of corruption by stakeholders in the country, chiefly by former NFF president, Sani Lulu who wrote a letter to president Goodluck Jonathan to probe the embattled NFF board. Speaking after the meeting, NFF executive committee member Emeka Inyama has dared the federal government, by calling for a probe into the NFF finances. He said: "We thank president Goodluck Jonathan for his support and the sports minister for his fatherly role. "We've heard so much about the NFF finances, so we have resolved and call on the federal government to set up a probe panel to look into the NFF finances so that the issue can be laid to rest. "The board is ready to account for every money received and spent. I think it's only fair to hear the side of the NFF before jumping into conclusions on any form of embezzlement. "We call for a probe and quickly too so that the credibility of football can be restored in Nigeria," Inyama said. He also spoke on the seeming division in the NFF board by denying any of such, saying all waring parties have been reconciled. "There's no form of division in the NFF. We have settled all the differences and we hop for a peaceful election next month. All interested parties are encouraged to participate as it will be a fair playing ground," he added. www.sl10.ng/news/articles/categories/south-africa/nff-board-dares-nigerian-government-calls-for-probes-into-finances/169821 |

kaorama: Maigari or whatever u call urself, u are calling for govt probe cos u have been taught b ur APC brothers how to chop and clean mouth. U must go next month after election.The man has been the best NFF chairman since 2002 despite is shortcomings, since the begining of is administration our national team have been playing friendly matches unlike the Galadima , Sani Lulu era. Even our under 17 in preparation for the qualifier of the under 17 nations cup have played Egypt they even went for a tourney in Benin or Togo can't remember where they finish third. Same things apply to the Under 20 male and female team. |
