Super Eagles Players Hold Pinnick Hostage Over Unpaid Debts
By Admin
BSN sports.com.ng gathered that players of the Super Eagles held NFF President, Amaju Pinnick hostage hours before their AFCON Match-day 5 qualifying match against the Bafana Bafana of South Africa on Saturday insisting that they must be paid all their outstanding allowances before they would step out for the match.
According to Sportsajasa, it took several plea by the Nigeria officials and well meaning Nigerians and with the sure promise by the supposed president of the Nigeria Football Federation, Amaju Pinnick that the money would be paid soon before the players agreed to go for the match.
This incident is coming against the backdrop of the many boast by Pinnick and his gangs of the number of corporate sponsors they have secured for the Nations football. Pinnick had even recently boasted that the Nigeria Football Federation in a matter of few years would be totally financially independent, saying that they have so far gotten to about 65% of financial freedom.
Be that as it may, allowances of players from the Senior National teams, the women teams (Falcons and Falcontes) and even the junior teams are not been paid.

Staff are crying of total neglect, the indigenous coaches are been owed several months and months of their salaries, debts upon debts are pilling up, which bring the question, where are the so called funds channeled to?
The fact is that only the Super Eagles players have the power to carry out such threat and receive attention speedily without any witch hunting. But that can never be the case with the other National teams who are the worst hit in this unfortunate situation. Most of them do not even have official kits to train with talk more of receiving their allowances as at when due.
