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.
