Image
The Fifa president’s recent visit to Abuja was a moral victory for Amaju Pinnick’s administration as well as an opportunity for federation chiefs to chart a new path. Football’s biggest personality was in Abuja last week as part of moves to reposition Nigerian football in an era when its fortunes have tumbled faster than a deluge.
