Eagles Supporters Club Crises Irreconcilable - Pinnick
President, Nigeria Football Federation, Amaju Pinnick, has stated that the crises rocking the two factions of the Super Eagles Supporters club are irreconcilable, BSN Sports reports.
Pinnick who said he had no preffered group but admitted working with Okumagba faction because they coordinate themselves and support the national team genuinely, said he had tried to broker peace between them but to no avail.
"When I came into the office in the first tenure, I did everything humanly, materially, and spiritually possible to bring them together but they are like two parallel lines. So, I know that these are differences that are Irreconcilable and I don't want that to affect our national team, so we decide who we wish to work with.
