Super Falcons Allowances: FIFA Stops Grants To Nigeria
*Dalung Orders Probe Of NFF
Sports Minister Solomon Dalung has ordered an audit of the finances of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) after world football governing body FIFA suspended any grants to the FA until they properly account for $1.1 million that has been paid to them.
Dalung was most scathing of the rot at the NFF in his speech during Sunday’s Annual General Assembly in Lagos.
“I received a report from the NFF intimating me of FIFA’s audit Report which raised queries on the management of $1.1 Million FIFA’s development grant to the NFF.
According to the Report, FIFA has withheld all development funds to Nigeria for lack of proper documentation of $802,000 out of the funds released to NFF,” reported Dalung.
