The President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Ibrahim Gusau, has announced his resignation from office.
Gusau made the announcement during a press conference in Abuja on Thursday, August 27, 2026.
His resignation comes amid growing criticism of football administration in Nigeria following a series of disappointing results involving the country’s national teams.
The development follows setbacks involving the Super Eagles and Super Falcons, with both teams reportedly failing to qualify for the World Cup.
Gusau’s decision is expected to trigger further discussions about the leadership and future direction of Nigerian football, particularly amid calls for reforms within the country’s football administration.
Further details surrounding his resignation, including the reasons for his decision and the next steps for the NFF leadership, are expected to emerge.
