NFF, according to its Chief Media Officer said that the ticket would be on sale on Monday at many outlets, noting that they have special arrangements for the VIP seats. but information reaching the public pointing out that the tickets for most of the VIPs and other stands have been given out through promotion by the sponsor of the match, Guinness PLC, the CMO said: 'The tickets for the popular stands will go for N2,500 and the it will go on sale.

Reasons behind this development arise as a result of the comedy show organize by individuals in partnership with corporate bodies as co-sponsors. I am afraid that there will be a low turn-out  if this is true cos as far as Abuja fans is concern high number of rich folks can ever be seen in National Stadium when compare to a comedy show.

secondly, the VIP stands are always scanty than to talk of the popular stands. i am of the opinion that d fee is not reasonable to an average futball lover in the City of Abuja rather they shod bring as low as N1,000 atleast. our transport system to the stadia is still below standard. many car owners are not sure if their vehicles are parked in the safer place within the stadium. traffic control by VIO + Road safety has not improved greatly. much things are expected in that stadium, which have not been put in place.

Finally, so NFF should try and look into all this and those not mentioned here before concluding their unreasonable plans on gate fees. more than 60-65% of people who are employed in this city earn below 20k a month, how do they expect them to risk 10% or more of their salary to watch a game than to talk of fans of comedians or music artists. this pple can't afford a ticket to go see their idol live in concert.

Okay na, they wil get the shock of their lives!!!!

N500 fuel and i go watch the match live. Why worry? Carry Go jor

Argentina Vs Nigeria: Venue: National Stadium Abuja: Gate fee: N2,500

True talk, bloke

#2500 is too much na after it's a friendly. They should have made it free.

them go hear am

that aint much.even without messi and tevez they still have better teams than half of europe and most of africa

Well for average person I think N 2,500 is a little much but to my surprise I heard NFF senior official on AIT Kaakaki early hour programme given a press conference saying N 2,500 is not too much afterall I qoute him" If people can go and watch Dbanj for N 5,000 why is N 2,500 too big to pay"

So it is obvious it was a deliberate gate fee and it was not base on due consideration and average Nigeria are not that much relevant watching the match because I dont see how DBanj or any music star has relevancy with this gate fee issue on ground.

Well I dont blame him or the NFF guys because they will not pay the gate fee from their own pocket and still sit comfortably with their family, friends or even girlfriends in VIP seats so why cant he run his mouth anyhow. An official that has no language courtsey just open mouth and release a stinky statement like a mad man in the street.

For Abuja right? hehehehe PREPARE to see EMPTY seats scattered around.

siddon look

Omo y'all are talking that its expensive.if u want to watch a match in london, u wud pay nothing less than 100 pounds and that's how club management make their moneys, that's why they are growing very big in finance.
