Ibrahim Musa Gusau, who has been in office since 2022, has also announced that several members of the NFF's board of directors will be resigning, without specifying their number. The NFF's secretary general, Mohammed Sanusi, is also leaving his position. This comes as the NFF is under investigation by the Nigerian police for allegedly misusing funds meant to settle arrears owed to national team players and officials. The funds, worth around 10.9 million euros, were allocated by the government in 2024. The Super Falcons, Nigeria's women's national team, failed to qualify for the 2027 Women's World Cup, a result that has been linked to the NFF's poor management.
