Amokachi: Pure Lies, Pinnick Still Desperate To Become NFF Boss Again



Former Super Eagles forward, Daniel Amokachi has disclosed that the outgoing President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick still has plans to remain on the job despite denying the fact that he’s not seeking a third term in office.

Recall that Pinnick had in an interview on Arise TV publicly declared he would work with whoever emerges as president after him, though he insisted there have been calls from different quarters persuading him to continue in office.

Pinnick, who has been in office since 2014, is the first Nigerian to hold the position of the NFF president for two terms. His second term is billed to expire on 20 September, 2022.

However, the Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on sports who spoke in a interview with Daily Trust stated that Pinnick should count himself lucky to have used two term in office compared to his predecessors.


“When you say a lot of people don’t believe what Amaju Pinnick is saying, I am a living testimony to what he can do when he says something. I was at the FIFA Congress. I was standing with FIFA president Gianni Infantino. He looked at me and said ‘this is my Technical Director. I was with the then CAF president Ahmad, he told him this is my Technical Director. And I was with the Hon. Minister of Sports, Chief Sunday Dare, and he told him the same thing.

“But the next minute when the media asked him, he denied. So, I won’t be surprised that he told Nigerians that he does not want it but deep down, the whole world knows he wants it. But he is just being greedy as a human being or a black Nigerian.


“Nobody in Nigerian history went for a second term and won but the heavenly Lord blessed you and you have done eight years. You are also a CAF and FIFA Executive member. So, what else do you want? If Nigerians say you have failed and they need a new hand, I think you should bow out and allow the right person to drive Nigerian football.

“You have made your contributions. Nigerians won’t dispute that. But let’s move on. We pray the next person that is coming would have the heavenly grace to lead Nigerian football.”

Amokachi is obviously interested in the top job and must be whispering to Bubu and his wife already to help him bring it to fruition.

Pinnik has not done so well for Nigerian football, but he has certainly done well for himself, becoming CAF and FIFA Exco members.

I miss Galadima, Nigeria football did so well under him, and if Nigeria is a country that rewards excellence, he should have got a second term

Why using the derogatory words like black Nigerian? Drive home your point without insult please.
Re: Amokachi: Pure Lies, Pinnick Still Desperate To Become NFF Boss Again by Cantonese:
Are they still in this matter?

They ruined the Nigerian league. The league is so uninteresting. Nobody cares about Nigerian football. All they do is loot, loot, loot and go home to rest.

I don't know what he has achieved so far. Attending socials and travelling out for fun making .
Ask him to tell Nigerians the hood he has brought to footballing in nigeria

Re: Amokachi: Pure Lies, Pinnick Still Desperate To Become NFF Boss Again by austinvsb:
Pinnick has done nothing to improve our local league. He has instead, contributed massively to its decline since he became NFF president.

If he doesn't leave that post, we may no longer have a domestic league by the time he finishes a third term. Such a useless NFF president!
Re: Amokachi: Pure Lies, Pinnick Still Desperate To Become NFF Boss Again by Kingcalls: 12:18pm On Aug 20, 2022
Its not in the DNA of Nigerians to resign or not to contest ..even if they know they hv nothing to offer
Re: Amokachi: Pure Lies, Pinnick Still Desperate To Become NFF Boss Again by Agboriotejoye(m): 12:19pm On Aug 20, 2022
That Pinnick is a failure of an NFF president
No major trophy in his tenure and failure to qualify for AFCON and now World Cup
Dude is just shameless
