The Nigeria Football Federation ( NFF ) on Monday in Abuja formally released the names of coaching crews of five national teams.
The federation, in a statement by its Communications Department, however said the development did not relate to three other national teams.
These three are the senior men’s team, the Super Eagles, the under-20 women’s team, the Falconets, and the under-17 women’s team, the Flamingoes, whose contracts are running.
The statement quoted the Chairman of NFF’s Technical and Development Committee, Yusuf Ahmed, as saying the appointments were with immediate effect.
“Our committee has done due diligence on all the names and approved the constitution of these technical crews,’’ it quoted him as saying.
