The Ministry has consequently directed the Federation to appear for an emergency meeting on Monday, April 4.

The outcome of the qualifying campaign led to the disengagement of the entire technical bench of the team led by Austin Eguavoen by the NFF but the ministry is not satisfied with the decision so far.

Many Nigerian football faithful have called for the resignation of the Nigeria Football Federation heirachy whose tenure elapses in September 2022.
