“For the Sports Ministry, I pray that everything works well for NFF and the Ministry to work together to achieve great things. With the NFF, I pray that all the football competitions that we will be going for this year to favour Nigeria so that the U-17 and U-20 teams will qualify for the World Cup from the Nations Cups.
