FG directs NFF to hold elections, amend statutes

Buhari was also quoted as directing that “the instrument of football administration in the country, the NFF Statutes be amended to include other stakeholders”, who had hitherto been disenfranchised, or denied equal representation in the NFF congress.

Buhari was said to reinforce the “Federal Government’s support for football development in the country”. He also urged the leadership of the NFF to ensure that the “amended statutes reflect the national yearnings, aspirations and peculiarities of Nigeria as a sovereign nation whilst aligning with the principles and objectives of football as set by the world soccer governing body, FIFA”.
