NFF crisis deepens as Gusau, board members reportedly resign
Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) President, Ibrahim Gusau, and other members of the federation’s board have reportedly resigned from their positions.
Their reported resignation comes amid growing scrutiny and criticism over the management and administration of football in Nigeria.
The development was reportedly triggered by the Super Falcons’ failure to qualify for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Nigeria have always qualified for the tournament throughout its history.
The NFF board had come under intense pressure following the poor management of Nigerian football.
The Super Eagles also failed to qualify for back-to-back World Cups, missing out on the 2026 edition.
A former media officer of the Eagles, Colin Udoh, wrote on X: “I have just been informed by a top @NatSportsComm official that @thenff President @IbrahimMusaGus1 and board have resigned.
“I have tried to reach Gusau for confirmation. I haven’t heard back from him yet.
“The NSC official says it is the first step towards restructuring the NFF.
“All will be clearer by the end of the day today.
