NFF sets up committee to investigate Super Falcons’ World Cup failure

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has set up a fact-finding committee to investigate the country’s recent struggles in international football, with particular attention on the Super Falcons’ failure to qualify for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup.

The decision follows Nigeria’s disappointing campaign at the ongoing Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, where the Super Falcons were eliminated in the quarter-finals before suffering a 2-1 defeat to South Africa in the playoff for a place in the Inter-Confederation Playoffs.

The defeat means Nigeria will miss the 2027 Women’s World Cup in Brazil, bringing an end to the Super Falcons’ record of appearing at every edition of the tournament since its inaugural staging in 1991.

The NFF said the committee would examine the setbacks suffered by the national teams and make recommendations aimed at preventing a repeat of such failures.

Ambassador Fanny Amun, MON, will chair the committee, while former Nigeria internationals Ladan Bosso, Desire Oparanozie and Mutiu Adepoju, alongside Dr Alex Mana, will serve as members.

Mr Nasiru Jibril has been appointed secretary of the committee.

The NFF said the committee’s findings and recommendations will help guide measures to improve Nigeria’s performance in future international competitions.

Why the committee? The NFF executives should do the needful by tendering their resignation letters for failing Nigerians. Simple!

Another way to embezzle money, what happened is a general systemic failure starting from bad government to dysfunctionalities in the system.

The award for the most useless association in this country goes to the NFF.
These rogues at the glass house are the architects of the problems bedeviling Nigeria’s football.

Tinubu rode on the 'success' of Buhari for the girls to win the last edition of the WAFCON in 2024. Then drastically, Tinubu nosedived the National team, both male and female and now they are crumbling.

It's not possible for anything to succeed under a total failure of a president.

A Committee: A group of persons who individually can decide nothing and as a group, decide that nothing can be done.

This committee won't still have the courage to indicte the nff chairman and his board for poor leadership, in sane civilised countries that zamfara man would have since honourably resigned from office but that's definitely not going to happen in a country like nigeria expect to still see him win the coming nff election next month after bribing all the state chairmen.

Instead of resignation
This peoples are setting up panel to investigate what?

We all saw this failure coming
Immediately after they won the 10th WAFCON titles they should have set up a panel to prepare for the next wafcon and world cup qualification

But they went to sleep
No friendlies
No engagement
No additions to the team

Boom fea days to this WAFCON they brought very old players who were match rusty

at all!!
From lack of preparation to the nonsense they played on the field. It was glaring. I remember when a player called our NFF for lack of preparation for this tournament some persons on nairaland were abusing the girl calling her over Sabi. That shows the mediocre mindset many Nigerians have. Unfortunately, they are the kind of people we have in top positions that's why we are seeing these kind of results.
