FIFA backs Nigeria football reforms, may set up normalisation committee – Dikko

FIFA has endorsed Nigeria's plan to comprehensively reform its football administration following the resignation of the entire board of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) and its General Secretary. The reforms, presented by the government after the leadership vacuum created by the resignation, will involve consultations with stakeholders.

FIFA may appoint a normalisation committee, overseen by FIFA, to oversee the reform process, with the committee operating for between six months and one year, depending on the reforms required and the agreement reached with stakeholders.
