Pinnick in a statement on Twitter sent out his ‘huge appreciation’ to FIFA for the one million dollars it sent to the NFF for COVID-19 palliatives.
“Huge appreciation to football's world governing body, @FIFAcom, for the $1 million (one million dollars) the Federation has received in the frame of COVID-19 palliatives. The money was received by the @thenff and we re-confirmed the purpose from FIFA two days ago,” the NFF boss said.
“As a further break down, the $1 million for palliatives is composed of $500,000 for men's football and $500,000 for the women's game.”
Pinnich went on to reveal that the NFF had earlier received another $600,000 from FIFA for FIFA Forward 2.0 projects in Birnin-Kebbi and Ugborodo.
At $300,000 each, the NFF will build mini-stadia in both centres to be completed by the end of March 2021.
According to Pinnick,FIFA has promised to also send an additional $500,000 sometime in January 2021, also as part of COVID-19 palliative efforts.
The NFF boss also confirmed the federation is expecting $300,000 from the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in the coming days.
A lot of money has been coming in for the NFF in the frame of COVID-19 palliatives and the federation in August 2020 showed how it has distributed it.

ReplyDeleteRecently received is what caught my attention. The specific date when the receipt of the money was confirmed is not mentioned here. I do not trust these guys. I am tempted to think that he is coming out now to say this in the aftermath of the revelation of covid 19 palliatives being kept in warehouses across the country.
ReplyDeleteAlot of money for this people to loot. We shall see how it goes.
ReplyDeleteAn independent body should audit NFF and make all the officials accountable for every dime.
ReplyDeleteThis man is the most greediest motherfucker on Earth very greedy NFF players are not bothered about him because they have other means of income. This one he openly appreciated FIFA I'm surprised it's unlike him.
