Former coach of the Super Eagles, Festus Adegboye Onigbinde has told the Chris Giwa-led Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), not to feel threatened by any potential ban from the world football governing body, FIFA.
Onigbinde was speaking to Hot Sports about the sack of Amaju Pinnick as NFF president, which saw Giwa installed in his stead, following a court ruling.
He stated that any ban could be a blessing in disguise.
“The truth is our football is in the doldrums. This is a great opportunity to get things done right. I don’t care if we are banned by FIFA. If we are banned over the crisis and we use the one or two years to reposition and sanitise our football, then let it be.
