Delegates hit Kaduna for NFF General Assembly

Delegates to the 67th Annual General Assembly of the Nigeria Football Federation stormed Kaduna State on Wednesday, ahead of Thursday’s event scheduled for the Royal Tropicana Suites on Isa Kaita Road.

FA Chairmen from 35 States of the Federation and the FCT (Yobe State has no FA Chairman presently) and FA Secretaries from the 36 States of the Federation and the FCT arrived in Kaduna for the big occasion where activities of Nigeria football in the outgoing year will be reviewed and decisions would be made for the running of the game in the country in the coming year.

Members of the NFF Executive Committee, led by the president, Alhaji Aminu Maigari, arrived ahead of the FA Chairmen and Secretaries. Maigari and several members of the Executive Committee arrived on Tuesday afternoon, while the remaining members of the Exco arrived Wednesday morning.

Maigari said: “We are happy to be here in Kaduna for this our Annual General Assembly. The Government and good people of Kaduna State have welcomed us very well and we have faith that we are safe and secure in this town.

“We are also looking forward to the General Assembly. It is going to be very serious business”, said Maigari.
