Femi Salako, publisher of Triangle magazine and social media influencer, has called on the Federal Government, through the Minister of Sports to dissolve the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) board.
Salako hinged his call for the dissolution of NFF board on the disgraceful announcement of the purpoted hiring of Bruno Labbadia without even concluding contractal talks with the German.
He wonders why the NFF, led by its Chairman, Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau, would “publicly announce the hiring of a foreign coach, Bruno Labbadia, without bothering to conclude talks with him; let alone sign any contractual documents with the German.”
Salako said he was not surprised that Bruno did not issue any statement on his purpoted hiring by the NFF
He wondered why the NFF chose to expose Nigeria to global ridicule as a result of the uncoordinated activities of the board.
Salako lamented that going by the confusion of the activities of the board, the NFF was began to toy with the qualification chances of the Super Eagles.
“Nigerian football is a major unifying factor among Nigerians. Unfortunately, that opportunity to further bring Nigerians together is at the point of being jeopardized by the Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau led NFF,” Salako lamented.
The social media influencer however, called on the EFCC to investigate subventions that have accrued to the NFF since the Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau board came into office.
He also urged the Sports Ministry to show more interest in the hiring of Bruno Labbadia ahead of the world cup qualifying matches of the Super Eagles.
