For the first time in the country’s history of football politics, two women made it to the NFF executive board at the same time.

’s Elective Congress was fraught with uncertainty, with court cases and litigation threatening to derail the process.

For the first time in the country’s football history, two women made it to the NFF executive board, successfully disrupting what had been the norm for several years. The Zamfara FA Chairman had secured the majority of the votes in the first ballot, defeating his closest rivals, former First Vice President and second Vice President, Seyi Akinwunmi and Shehu Dikko.

Ahmed Yusuf Fresh emerged as the Chairman of Chairmen after polling majority votes of 41 cast to emerge unopposed. For the North-west, unopposed Sharif Rabiu Inuwa of Kano State polled 40 votes for a seat on the NFF Board. For the South-west, Sunday Ajayi and Ganiyu Majekodunmi sealed their places on the NFF Board after they both polled 12 votes each.
