Sports development minister, Senator John Owan Enoh, yesterday met with the leadership of the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) in his office at the MKO
He said the interaction was basically to enable him gain deeper insight into the present state of Nigeria’s football, assuring that he is prepared to show the leadership needed to take the round leather game, and indeed other sports, to greater heights.
According to him, the followership, interest, popularity and excitement that football generates around the country, necessitates why careful and intentional actions must be taken for the growth of the game. “We should address topical and trending issues such as the 10 year football master plan implementation, membership of the executive board of the NFF, the image of our league, amongst other issues. We must look at global best practices obtainable in thriving nations.
