A former marketing officer of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF),
Idris Adama, has slammed current president, Amaju Pinnick, for claiming
the federation is too broke to fly the Super Eagles to Zambia for
Sunday’s 2018 World Cup qualifier.
On Tuesday, Pinnick told the Senate Sports Committee, that they are yet to pay for the team’s chartered flight and hotel in Ndola, because of financial constraints.
Adama, in his reaction, claimed that it is fraudulent for such things to be said.
He revealed that there was much money in a joint account the NFF had
with its marketing agent, Pamodzi, which he insisted was enough to write
off the bills.
“Several of the sponsors have paid up. Emzor Paracetemol and Globacom
have all paid and there is $1 million from Supersport with the NFF
marketing agent, who only needs to take his 20% commission, and pay the
balance to the NFF,” Adama told Hot FM Abuja.
Adama also revealed that he generated N1.4 billion annually for the
NFF during his time there, before he was eased out by Pinnick.
