The House of Representatives has directed the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to ensure that Nigerian Super Eagles qualify for the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup.

The House Committee on Sports gave the directive during a meeting with the NFF at the National Assembly in Abuja.

“You must ensure Super Eagles qualify for the world cup in Qatar 2022 because that is what Nigerians expect from you. Nigerians will not forgive you if we fail to qualify for the world cup,” Chairman of House Committee on Sports, Olumide Osoba said.

”We shall give you all the necessary support to ensure that our flag is hoisted in Qatar as one of the countries that qualified, but you must be transparent and show accountability in all you do so that we have a good working relationship.

“To this end I want you to make available to the committee your monthly account details for the purpose of transparency and accountability. It became necessary to request the account details in order to enable Nigerians to know that the House is committed to ensuring accountability in sports administration in Nigeria.”

Amaju Pinnick, President of the Nigeria Football Federation while defending the job his team has achieved so far, assured the House of Representatives that Nigeria’s football governing body would be financially transparent with the lawmakers while assuring that NFF would continue to work closely with the House to ensure the Nation qualifies for the 2022 World Cup.
