Sport minister blames NFF for Nigeria’s failure to qualify for AFCON 2017


Dalung pleads with NFF over Oliseh

Solomon Dalung

Minister of sports, Solomon Dalung has given his thoughts after Nigeria’s failure to qualify for the 2017 African Cup of Nations.

Ramadan Shoby scored in the secured half to condemn Nigeria to a defeat hence making it mathematically impossible to qualify for the AFCON 2017.

Nigeria and Egypt played out a 1-1 draw in Kaduna last week. Egypt has seven points while Nigeria has two points with just one match to go for the two teams in the qualifying stages.

Dalung apologized to Nigerians via his twitter handle and suggested that the NFF crisis led to the Super Eagles being ill-prepared for the encounter with Egypt.
