Order for ministry to shape up or...

Nigeria Football Association, NFA-ravaged image following the muscle-flexing between the Sports Ministry and the Galadima elected Board, may soon be smoothened if fillers reaching our offices in Lagos from Abuja, are anything to go by.

 

According to nigeriasports.com reliable sources," the Presidency has stepped into the prolonged feud and ordered that the impasse be settled now or, the Presidency would have to look for lasting solution, since it looks like, the sports ministry is not capable of handling the situration." 
Furthermore, we were told that, nation's power seat has been following developments at the soccer house and has not been impressed by what the ministry has done so far.

 "We can inform you that, the Presedency is not happy with what is happening to our football.  Sooner than later, the world football governors, FIFA would be forced to sanction the country, since they have approved and accepted the Galadima faction as the legal body to run the affairs of the FA at least for now," we were informed.

To this end, nigeriasports.com was informed that, the elongated feud between the sports ministry and the Nigeria FA, would soon be a thing of the past.  We gathered that, the Presidency's order came on the heels of findings that, Galadima's re-election was in order based on the Statue and that he, Alhaji Ibrahim Galadima was not indicted by the House of Representative Committee on Sports' Reports as had been widely speculated by the ministry.
