Nigeria very lucky to avoid a FIFA ban

Nigeria has escaped a FIFA ban after Chris Giwa agreed to drop his claims as president of the Nigeria Football Federation(NFF)

There were fears that Nigeria would be banned today if the FIFA warning for Chris Giwa to vacate office was not adhered to.

Barrister Musa Amadu today resumed work at the secretariat of the NFF after weeks of absence from his post as the Secretary General of the federation.

Where have all the leaders gone?

The crisis facing our country and the world at large is the crisis of leadership. In 1945 giants walked the earth: Franklin Roosevelt in the United States, Winston Churchill in Britain, Charles de Gaulle in France and Konrad Adenauer in West Germany. Stalin – in spite of his brutality – was one of the giants of the twentieth century. In the natural sciences, men such as Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr were carrying on their eternal debate on quantum physics and whether or not God plays dice with the universe.
