FIFA Suspends Nigeria Over NFF Sacking



From the news reaching Unique Information from Vanguard News on 9th July, 2014, FIFA suspends Nigeria from playing football with any nation as a result of Nigerian government interference after Nigeria crashed out in round sixteen of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.


The suspension is because Nigerian Court sacked the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, and the government appointed a sole administrator to see to the affair of football in the country.

According to FIFA, Nigeria will not partake in the upcoming Under-20 Woman World Cup scheduled to hold from August 5 to 24 until the suspension is lifted.

The question is: can Nigeria government remove politics from football? What is your opinion? Feel free to share that in the comment section.
