The embattled President of Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, Ibrahim Gusau, and other board members have resigned, a reliable source told CPCNEWS.
This comes following public anger over the poor management of Nigerian football after the Super Eagles failed to qualify for two consecutive world cups.
The last straw was failure of the Super Falcons to qualify for the FIFA Women World Cup for the first time.
Recall that Nigeria’s secret police, the Department of State Services, DSS, recently joined other security operatives in investigating the NFF over the utilisation of the N17bn Federal Government intervention fund released to the Federation for players’ wages and bonuses.
The fund was approved by President Bola Tinubu in 2024 to clear outstanding payments owed to Nigeria’s national teams.
