NFF Gives Preferential Treatment To Foreign Coaches Than Indigenous Coaches -Izilein


Former Super Falcons coach, Godwin Izilein has accused the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) of given preferential treatment to foreign coaches than the indigenous coaches.

Izilein, who stated this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), said that the NFF are still owing him match bonuses and allowances amounting to N10 million.

He noted that the action of the football body could be intentional and urged them to always respect the indigenous coaches.

“Indigenous coaches have the capability to change the narratives of the national teams, and it is high time they are accorded their deserved respect like their foreign counterparts,” he said.

“It is regrettable that 17 years after leading the Super Falcons to Johannesburg in South Africa in 2004 to win the African Women Championship, the NFF is yet to pay to me match bonuses amounting to 28,750 dollars (about N10 million).

“It is as a result of this that I have forbidden the NFF from mourning me whenever I die. The only honour I want from the NFF is to pay me what it owns me, not when I am dead.I cannot recall any foreign coach who has so worked for the country as a handler of the national team who has been treated so shabbily.

“I don’t know what my offence is, for them to have refused to pay me this money. I have written and personally met with heads of NFF at different times and yet, the story remains the same. The last I did, I met the present NFF President, Amaju Pinnick, in the presence of Gov. Godwin Obaseki of Edo, where I again tabled the matter.

“Even though he (Pinnick) expressed shock that I was yet to be paid, but he promised to do something quickly about it. But as of now, two years after, the story is still the same. But I am only interested in my money, not any addition,” he said.
