The Nigeria Football Federation President, Amaju Pinnick has stated that the federation will take some “very difficult and impossible decisions” which could affect certain domestic competitions and national teams after the coronavirus lock down is lifted.
The global coronavirus pandemic has caused extensive financial losses to various sporting entities worldwide including in Nigeria where all football has been shut down since 19 March. In an interview yesterday, the NFF President said the NFF will have to adapt to the current situation and take decisions that reflect present realities.
He further added that the economic impact of the “Force Majeure” on NFF’s “optimum sponsor” AITEO means the federation has to re-think some of their plans for the year which could have an impact on domestic competitions and the national teams.
