What NFF Board Meeting Failed To Address

WHAT THE NFF BOARD MEETING FAILED TO ADDRESS By Adewale Ajayi 1. Board did not order the immediate inauguration of all outstanding committees 2. Board did not order an inquest or investigation into the utterances of some of it's members in the last few months and take a decision to warn or suspend such members, to serve as detterant to others. 3. Board did not discuss the September 30 election by setting up a time frame for collection and submission of forms and admonishing interested aspirants, to act in conformity to laid down guidelines 4. Board did not recognise or appreciate the role played by the media in the journey so far but did well to celebrate all other stakeholders. 5. Board did not confirm, if or when the first batch of FIFA money will be paid and plans on how it will be disbursed 6. Board was so busy so it might have skipped their thoughts to add as an addendum, the wedding of two key members Sabo and Kwande and the 60th birthday of Otunba Dele Ajayi 7. Board did not tell us why Barrister Chris Green who has been on self exile from previous board activities suddenly reappears for this. What were the peace initiatives and are we sure all existing differences are now fully resolved 8. Board did not say much about the outstanding bonuses and allowances of players of the various National teams. 9. Board did not provide us with a comprehemsive ittenery of the Super Eagles for the world cup. 10. Board has not given us a breakdown of the Super Eagles winning bonuses and allowances from pre event camping, to the world cup proper . 11. NFF what has happened to your integrity unit? Of recent, the silence from that very active department has left many wondering. THESE ISSUES SKIPPED THE BOARD MEMORY AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. WHAT THE BOARD OBVIOUSLY DID RIGHT 1. Getting barrister Chris Green back to the fold was massive and highly commendable 2. The decision to give 200m naira of the sponsorship monies to the various leagues, as take off grants is highly commendable. 3. The deserved encomiums poured out on the sponsorship and marketing committee will spur them to do even better.
