Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president Amaju Pinnick will contest with his opponent in next month's Confederation of African Football (CAF) executive committee elections, Moucharafa Anjorin of Benin Republic who described Pinnick as a ' small boy'.

Though, it is going to be difficult task for Pinnick to unseat Moucharafa who defeated former NFF boss Aminu Maigari four year ago in Morroco.
Moucharafa the Nigerian born Benin Republic FA chairman will be relying on his closeness to CAF president Issa Hayatou.

On the other hand, NFF president has a warm relationship with FIFA Secretary general Fatma Samba Samoura and FIFA president Infantino, both of whom have visited Nigeria on Pinnick invitation. He was also appointed into FIFA organising committee on a four year tenure some months ago.
If Samoura and Infantino should throw their weight behind Pinnick, surely , Mouchrafa will be in trouble.

Hayatou, who has been the CAF President since 1988 will be challenged by Madagscar FA president Ahmad Ahmad who enjoys the support of COSAFA ( consist of 6 African football Nations), Pinnick and FIFA president Infantino.
The overwhelming support made Issa Hayatou to be restless and trying to do everything within his capacity to make sure he remains in office.
Since the suspension of Amos Adamu no Nigerians has won the post as the former two contestants from Nigeria have lost out and this is more reason why I support Amaju Pinnick to win the seat. Though, the post favour the individual the more and does the country little or no favour.

Hmm...when Pinnick cld nt manage his home!
