Nigeria Football Federation President, Ibrahim Gusau, has resigned from his position amid growing concerns over the state of Nigerian football.
Gusau announced his decision on Thursday during a press conference in Abuja, bringing his tenure as the head of the country’s football governing body to an end.
His resignation comes at a time of heightened scrutiny of the NFF following a series of setbacks involving Nigeria’s national teams.
The development follows the failure of both the Super Eagles and Super Falcons to secure qualification for the 2026 and 2027 FIFA World Cups respectively.
The disappointing results have intensified calls for accountability within the federation and increased pressure on its leadership.
Gusau’s resignation is expected to trigger further developments within the NFF as stakeholders assess the implications of the leadership change for Nigerian football.
