NFF General Secretary, Musa Amadu, Resigns

by Zenith Oduah

The General Secretary of the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) Musa Amadu has resigned his appointment from the football governing body.

The ongoing feud between the President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Amaju Pinnick and the General Secretary took another dimension as the secretary decided to quit his position after over four years on the job.

Information obtained on the official website of the NFF, Amadu’s resignation was dated March 18, 2015 and has already been accepted by the executive committee.

Amadu, 53, was made NFF general secretary in July 2010.

His resignation is not unconnected with the row he had with NFF president Amaju Pinnick on Wednesday.

The NFF has announced Mohammed Sanusi as the new general secretary. Sanusi, who was Amadu’s assistant, was also the director of competitions at the football body.
