Nigeria abolish bonuses for world champions Eaglets

Cash-strapped Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) have abolished match bonuses for the country’s developmental teams led by five-time U17 world champions Golden Eaglets, president Amaju Pinnick has announced.


The other developmental teams are U17 female team, the Flamingoes, U13 and U15 national teams.

“The players of these national teams will no longer be entitled to match bonus because of lack of funds caused by the economic downturn in the country,” a top official informed.

Pinnick admitted the NFF's poor finances on a television programme on Thursday.

“Funding has been very, very poor for the federation,” restated the NFF boss, who ruled out speculations that some of the national teams will be scraped because of the cash crunch.

The NFF have budgeted more than seven billion Naira for 2016 with most of the cash coming from government subvention.

Why spoil this period for those Boys

Okay

u want to use them as scape goats abi. Una give them this money so they can launch their careers.





***Yeye dey smell

The NFF is so incompetent. They are meant to be an independent body that generate its own funds. They are to be independent off the government and to strike sporting deals with private local and international organizations for finance. However, all they do is rely on the government for funds, yet Fifa expects no government meddling in the affairs of the NFF? What a joke.

If the government has no right to influence the decision of the Agency, then it has no obligation to fund it. Good luck to them.

ok

It's ftc again !!!! Wetin man go do ?? .......... Buhari body odour smells all over !!

The so called 5% made up 99% of that winning team. The country will never progres until merit is elevated over quota system

Already dia spirit no dh boosted ryt from time and now this one don kill am finish

In order words they shouldn't be playing for the money rather for the love of the game. This is the adverse effect of Economic down turn.

Nonesense

What can I say sef...
I hope they also scrap their own huge incentives too. I know they won't.. Monkey dey work baboon dey chop

Sai Baba.......We saw this coming but they voted for "change".

Scrap the trash, find job for them in the farm... or what are economic benefit has their victory brought to my dear country.

Pathetic excuses.

Did Pinnick also abolish his own salaries?

The administrators eat the bulk of the money n travel in business class while its the players and coaches that draw the spectators and the money in.

What happened to the funds gotten from the FIFA goal project
Every year, FIFA gives its members lump sums for developmental projects and programs including direct cash funding for youth team.

When people talk about corruption, they focus solely on some areas while under reporting others.

Sai chanji, sai baba.

this is what Karl marx predicted

Very good. Make secondary school boys wey Milo dey support start to play U17 football. Those ones wey dem dey pick for Pepsi academy don old finish. Na the money wey dem go give dem na im those Pepsi own dey play for.
