NFF To Brainstorm On League, National Teams, ’Morrow
The Executive Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) will meet in Lagos tomorrow to discuss crucial matters concerning the country’s league as well as the national teams.
Speaking ahead of the executive committee meeting, NFF president Amaju Pinnick said the executive team will be invited to consider well–thought and properly–articulated proposals that will be diligently implemented to lead Nigeria football to a new, exciting thoroughfare.
“There are a lot of things that we want to do, and which we hope to seal at the meeting in Lagos,” said Pinnick.
“There is urgent need to buoy the domestic League, give it credibility and implement those measures that will bring back the glory days.
“We also must think of how best to prepare the national teams for competitions, while also looking intensely at developmental programmes that will assure the future of our football.
“We must look at the way and manner we employ coaches into the national teams; everything should be appropriately documented in order that we avoid litigations and situations of trainers being unhappy while doing their job. There must be a lot of professionalism in all these.”
