Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, has debunked reports on social media that the football body was indebted to former Nigeria captain and coach, Christian Chukwu, who died on Saturday.
Reacting to a social media post that claimed NFF was owing the 1980 AFCON-winning team captain $128,000, NFF General Secretary, Mohammed Sanusi, said there is no record in the NFF of any outstanding indebtedness to Christian Chukwu.
Sanusi explained that during the first term of the Board headed by Amaju Pinnick, a committee was set up to peruse the papers of coaches who were being owed, even from previous NFF administrations.
He therefore challenged anyone with genuine and verifiable documents of NFF indebtedness to any coach, who has worked with any of the National Teams over the past two decades, to come forward and tender those documents.
