NFF Moves to Permanent Site
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), will finally move to its permanent site before the 2014 FIFA World Cup kicks off, 68 years after being founded.
The Federation is moving to a new complex located beside the FIFA Technical Centre and football turf, inside the Abuja National Stadium and was inaugurated on February 21 by President Goodluck Jonathan.
Musa Amadu, the General Secretary of the NFF, made the news public during the unveiling of the new jerseys for the Super Eagles, saying: “It is high time we moved into this place. We have had some delays because of paucity of funds to be able to furnish the place very well but we are determined and decided that we must move to this place before the World Cup,” Amadu said.
“The movement will be in three phases, the first phase will be in April, the second phase will be in the month of May and then the third and final phase will be in June before the World Cup and by then we will be fully operating from the Sunday Dankaro Football House.
“This is the assurance I want to give to Nigerians and it is high time we moved into a befitting secretariat and do the business of running and governing football in Nigeria.”
