The Secretary General of Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, Dr. Mohammed Sanusi has revealed the financial state of the football governing body in the country,
noting that the football association is broke as he
lamented its inability to meet most of its financial obligations, a situation he said has become embarrassing.
According to the Sanusi, all the coaches of the national teams are being owed salary arrears because there is no money to pay
them. He added that this has gotten to a situation that the non payment of these coaches salaries now subject of discussion in the public domain.
“It is rather so unfortunate that we find ourselves in this ugly situation of inability of the NFF to pay salaries of the coaches. I want to say that it is not only the coaches
that this affected, I and some other staff of the NFF are also affected too.
“But I believe that those concerned should understand the position of the NFF that we are making frantic effort to see that we get money to solve all these problems.
“Unfortunately, while we are making effort to get money, the situation has gone beyond the wall of the NFF and now subject of discussions in the public domain. I think this is not too good for us We know the complaints of these people, I can assure that we are doing everything within our power to solve problem as soon as possible,” Dr. Sanusi said.
