The Nigeria Football Federation will be moving into their permanent
site after 68 years of its inception before the kick-off of the 2014
Fifa World Cup Brazil.
The building located beside the Fifa Technical Centre and football turf inside the package B of the National Stadium Abuja was inaugurated by President Goodluck Jonathan on February 21, 2012.
Musa Amadu, the General Secretary of the NFF disclosed this during
the unveiling of the Super Eagles jerseys and explained further that the
movement will be done in three phases
"It is high time we
moved into this place. We have had some delays because of paucity of
funds to be able to furnish the place very well but we are determined
and decided that we must move to this place before the World Cup,” said
Amadu.
"The movement will be in three phases, the first phase
will be in April, the second phase will be in the month of May and then
the third and final phase will be in June before the World Cup and by
then we will be fully operating from the Sunday Dankaro Football House.
"This is the assurance I want to give to Nigerians and it is high time
we moved into a befitting secretariat and do the business of running and
governing football in Nigeria,” he concluded.
The football federation’s known then as Nigeria Football
Association was at a time located in Lagos, precisely on Ogunlana Drive
in Surulere before it was moved to Abuja at the turn of this millennium.
