SUPPORTERS CLUB SEEK INCLUSION IN NFF RECONCILIATION C'MTTEE

By Akeem Busari.

The Nigeria Football Supporters Club have made a strong appeal to the Minister of Youth and Sports, Barrister Solomon Dalong, to include the club in the newly constituted committee set up to look into the unending crisis rocking the Nigeria Football Federation.

The Secretary - General of the NFSC, Rev. Sam lkpea, made this passionate appeal during an exclusive interview in his office. He stated that the committee set up by the minister is incomplete because the major stake holders, particularly, the supporters club are not represented on the committee.

"We (supporters club) feel short changed because the minister and the football authorities have consistently over looked us, particularly, when it comes to taking important decisions on the state of Nigerian football, "Ikpea lamented.

He continued:" We are genuine stakeholders in the fortunes of Nigerian football. It is a fact that some of us have have consistently been following and supporting Nigerian football for more than four decades and of course, expending time, energy and resources in the cause.

"As a matter of fact, we have top class, experienced and well educated members in the NFSC, who can serve on such and other bodies meritoriously," the amiable scribe of the NFSC said.
