“Everybody involved in the match is working round the club to ensure that Nigeria beats Cameroun and qualify for the World Cup. The Akwa Ibom State government has done well in ensuring that all the facilities are ready for the game and I want every Nigerian to support the team to success.“Nigerian football is a continuing project and we must continue to protect it no matter who is in charge.”Amaju assured that Nigerians holding different positions in FIFA and CAF would continue to ensure that the country benefitted from their membership of the world football bodies.
He added: “We have been fighting to get into influential positions in world football and today, many Nigerians are in CAF and FIFA and nothing happens without Nigeria’s input.“We will continue to build Nigerian football into a global brand that nobody will take us for granted any more.”He revealed that the CAF executive committee was planning to introduce a continental women club championship, adding, “In March 2018, CAF will have a symposium for women football and adding a championship for women football clubs is one of the things in the agenda.“But we don’t just want to start the championship without first looking into the demands and all the possibilities.”
