Nigerian football is in dire need of a new perspective, according to Ebi Egbe, CEO of Monimichelle Sports Infrastructure Limited. In response to calls for the dismissal of the Ibrahim Gusau-led board of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Egbe urged for a breath of fresh air by steering clear of individuals who have contributed to the current state of the country's football.
He emphasized that the Chairman of the National Sports Commission (NSC) should not reintroduce individuals who played a significant role in creating the current predicament. Egbe believes that Nigerians will strongly oppose any attempt to recycle the same people and expect a different outcome. He stressed that the country's football requires fresh ideas, leaders, professionals, and a new direction.
