Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has moved to provide support for former Nigeria star and coach Christian Chukwuemeka Chukwu who is currently very sick.

Earlier reports on Sunday had it that the former defender of the Green Eagles and captain of the 1980 Africa Cup of Nations-winning team is in need of the sum of $50,000 to carter for his health challenge.

The stated amount is meant to pay for Chukwu’s round trip to the United States of America, his surgery, medication and general after-surgery care.

But according to a statement on NFF website on Sunday, the President of the Federation, Mr. Amaju Melvin Pinnick is now aware of the matter and has given instructions to relevant authorities.

“I am not in Nigeria presently but I have asked the NFF Acting President, Barr. Seyi Akinwunmi to take full charge and ensure that this matter is treated promptly,” Pinnick said.

“It was for this kind of development that I spoke about the welfare foundation for our legends at the 2nd AITEO-NFF Awards in Lagos on 1st April 2019.

“The NFF would always be there to lend support to our legends in their hour of need,” he added

pinnick could pass out as the best NFF president Nigeria has ever had, he can't do all but at least trying to do his best.
