The Nigeria Football Federation has been summons by Minister of Sports Development John Enoh to present a comprehensive technical report on the Super Eagles, in light of their recent two disappointing results in the June World Cup qualifying window.
After losing 2-1 to Benin Republic in Abidjan and drawing 1-1 with South Africa at the Godswill Akpabio stadium in Uyo, the Super Eagles were only able to earn one point out of a potential six. These results came from their third and fourth Group C games.
These results leave the Eagles with a total of just three points from a possible 12 in their quest to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, which will be jointly hosted by USA, Canada and Mexico.
In a statement shared by the minister’s office, Enoh expressed dissatisfaction with the outcome, especially considering the substantial support the NFF had received from President Bola Tinubu’s administration and the positive working relationship between the ministry and the federation.
“The recent results are unacceptable. Despite the immense support from President Tinubu and the high expectations of Nigerian football fans, the Super Eagles have underperformed.
“The NFF must provide a comprehensive technical report explaining the reasons behind this poor showing and give cause why there mustn’t be consequences for the disappointment caused both to the Government and the generality of Nigerians.”
Senator Enoh emphasised that Nigerian football fans demand and deserve answers and accountability from the NFF.
“Our supporters are passionate and devoted. They deserve an explanation for why our national team has not been performing to the expected standards since after the last AFCON,” he added.
The Eagles currently sit fifth, while Benin Republic move up to first place in the six-team table.
