Nigeria: Pinnick Dreams Football Restructuring

3 November 2014

The President of the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, Mr. Amaju Pinnick wants his administration to reposition Nigerian football and build the country into a football power house in the world. He commended Globacom for providing support for sports in Nigeria.

Mr. Pinnick, who paid a courtesy visit to the corporate headquarters of Globacom in Lagos promised to build a more respectable image for Nigerian football by instituting the winning attitude. Mr. Pinnick commended Globacom for comprehensively supporting the national teams over the years adding that Globacom would henceforth get more value for invested money as the sponsorship fee would be attached to clearly defined programmes. "We congratulate Glo. We believe you should get double the value of what you have invested in football. We also appreciate Dr. Adenuga who is a Pillar on the continent and a rallying symbol. We promise a symbiotic relationship that would be mutually beneficial and henceforth you will see visibly what your funds are being used for. We want to glow in every way" the NFF President noted.
