Ex-Eagles Idah joins race for NFF Presidency

Clergyman, football pundit and former Nigerian international, Peterside Idah is interested in becoming the next President of the Nigerian Football Federation, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Current President, Amaju Pinnick is on his way out of the NFF and has revealed he won’t vie for a third term after a series of rumours linking him with another four years on the job.

Idah, who played for BCC Lions of Gboko (now defunct), Enyimba and Moroka Swallows in his playing days is a regular feature on Supersport’s Soccer Africa where he appears as one of the ‘wise men’ as pundits on the show are called. He was also a Media Officer of the Super Eagles.

In a video posted on Twitter, Idah called it a “revolution of football in Nigeria”. And he said change needs to happen.
