Segun Odegbami Runs For FIFA Presidency.. by Dbestmax(m): 8:08am On Sep 07, 2015

African ace football legend and one of the greatest Nigerian
players of all time, Segun Odegbami, has thrown his hat into the
ring to contest for the post of President of FIFA – the
international governing body of association football across the
world, with election scheduled to take place on the 26th of
February, 2016in Zurich, Switzerland.
The position of the President of FIFA is now vacant since the
current president – Sepp Blatter – resigned his appointment in
June 2015. According to Segun Odegbami, also known as
‘Mathematical Odegbami’ – a label he was given because of his
masterful exhibition of engineered dribbles, technical control of
the ball and goal-scoring skills during his footballing era – said,
“The current scandal at FIFA is the organisation’s worst crisis in
its 111 years of existence. Moving forward, FIFA thus require a
new era of leadership that can restore the dignity of the noble
sport and that of this esteemed international institution with
global followership”
Odegbami believes that to address this will demand that FIFA
purges itself, launders its image, restores its reputation and
reinstates integrity into its activities and operations and that
this would require a new form of leadership with a renewed
vision. He said: “Times like this call for all concerned members of
the global football family to contribute to the actualization of
renewed objectives for FIFA by electing a deserving and
qualified person, with the right character that can achieve the
desired goals and restore confidence and integrity to the
organization and its activities. The world is very interested in
who becomes the next President of FIFA, considering the present
image and state of this institution and I see myself fitting into
this role”
The deadline for candidates to formally present their
nominations through their home football federations, with other
supporting documents, is 26th October 2015. Candidates will also
undergo an integrity test, through FIFA’s ad-hoc election
committee. Segun Odegbami now seeks the support and prayers
of all Nigerians, the African continent and, indeed, the whole
world, in taking up this challenge to recreate a new image for
the game of football and reposition its developmental influence
and possibilities across the globe.
