We’re Processing Rohr’s Work Permit –NFF by dodoisk(m): 2:37pm On Sep 14, 2016 |
Nigeria Football
Federation (NFF) has
revealed that the
federation has started the process of securing work
permit for the new Super Eagles Technical Adviser,
Gernot Rohr, attributing the delay to the initiation of the
process from his country, Germany.
Certain persons raised the alarm of the illegality of the
German tactician taking charge of the Super Eagles’
Nations Cup qualifier against Tanzania at the Nest of
Champions in Akwa-Abiom, warning that since that
cannot happen in his country the football federation got
it wrong allowing such in the country.
However, reacting to the claim, the General Secretary of
the federation, Mohammed Sanusi, said though the
other foreign coaches that had handled the Super
Eagles previously had no work permit but only visa, the
federation had gone a step further to secure work
permit for Rohr.
Urging soccer-loving Nigerians not to allow the
distraction divert their prayers towards ensuring that
Nigeria picks the sole ticket in the FIFA World Cup group
B, the federation’s chief scribe clarified that the process
had already started from Germany, stressing that he,
however, had valid visa.
His words: “It is on record that every other foreign
coach that handled the Super Eagles never did so with
work permit, but only visa. Rohr has a valid visa but the
federation has gone extra miles to ensure that we
secure work permit for Rohr.
“We should however understand that securing work
permit is not an easy task. It involves a long process
and that is why it delayed till now. Let me inform you
that the process has started.
“But we want to inform the public that securing the
work permit is not the type we can give time because it
takes time. His country, Germany will initiate the
process, which had been done. We however have no
iota of doubt that he will soon secure it. We should not
make it a serious issue,” he appealed. |
