Re-called NFA workers still not free

Fresh from what could best be described as an 'illegal banishment', members of the Galadima-led board of the Nigerian FA have every reason for now, to heave a deep sigh of relief.

 

This is the result of the amicable settlement of the fued which almost swallowed them and their mandate to stir the nation's soccer boat for the next four years.

But even at that, some of them, especially the leader, Alhaji Galadima still had to sleep with his eyes open because of speculations that, the former minister, Sambawa still had a score to settle with him. 

But again, all that have suddenly been blown into the wind by the sudden resignation or sack by the Government of the minister.

If the board members are now at peace in the Glass House in Abuja, even with the purported alarm being raised by a fresh move by Director of Sports Development in the Sports Ministry, Dr. Amos Adamu to 'hack down' Galadima and his men during the NFA Congress, workers of the Soccer House, who had been sent packing by Fanny Amun but re-called by the board, cannot be in the same shoes.

This is sequel to the fact emanating from Abuja that, "though the workers may have been re-called to their duty posts, there are indications that, some of them may still have to go back home permanently."

According to nigeriasports.com impeccable sources from Abuja, "the call-back-to-job of the workers is to ensure that, their outstanding allowances are paid to them. 

But after this is done, I can assure you that, some of them would have to go back and join the labour market queue, because as it were, the FA does not need so many people to function in the new dispensation...period," our source hammered in a note of finality.
