NFF does not care about the national team, they don't care of they succeed or fail. All they are interested in is how to divert funds meant for building the team to their own personal benefits. It is just sad because even if the players wants to overlook the shortcomings of the NFF, at a point they will get tired because they're also human. Nobody derived joy from where they are not appreciated so it's an issue that really needs to be addressed. Nigerians are football lovers, a lot of Nigerians are fans to foreign teams and if the Nigerian football was to be made to a standard, you will see that most of these local teams would have a lot of fans supporting them and even going to the stadium to watch live matches but the NFF is not willing to make that sacrifice for the Nigerian football.
I think otherwise. The NFF care but the government is not doing it's best. It's not just NFF, it's across the Nigerian sport federation. We don't treats sports with passion yet we want to win games. The only time you see politicians and the government pay interests to games is when they see any Nigerian sport teams are heading to final, that's when you see them making promises, they offered all kind of promised to motivate them to win the match.
Some of the players especially the NFF are international stars, they don't get paid, they get bonuses which are skip for months and some for years. They owed these guys money and the NFF entirely unlike other countries that value sports with passion. We now expect the players to win matches with this kind of struggle, let's be honest, if anyone of us are there, we will not give the best for the team. I can tell you that most of the players are doing it for patriotic.
