Nigeria Can't Fly Super Eagles to Zambia for a World Cup Qualifier - NFF


 
We reported earlier that a CNN exclusive report, revealed that Nigeria's 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign may be over before it even begins as funding for its men's national football team, the Super Eagles has been dealt a huge blow in terms of finance in the midst of a crippling recession triggered by weak oil prices.

"As we speak, we don't have any kobo (a denomination of Nigeria's naira currency) in our purse. The charges for the Airline alone is $200,000 for a 140-seater plane, and it will be on ground with the team for two days. We need between $6,000 and $10,000 for flight ticket(s) to bring in the players (from Europe)," an unnamed member of the NFF was said to have revealed.
 
The nation's football's governing body, the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) has taken to its official Twitter account to dispel the viral report. Below is what it posted.
 
"The NFF has dismissed a report that it cannot fly the Super Eagles to Zambia for a World Cup qualifier as blatant falsehood.

"NFF President Pinnick: 'We have concluded arrangements on movement to and from Zambia. Any talk of being unable to go is a big lie.'

"Some persons have perfected the art of concocting stories they feel people want to read about NFF and passing it off as authentic stories."
