Nigeria Football Federation chief resigns amid corruption allegations

Ibrahim Musa Gusau has resigned as president of the Nigeria Football Federation, citing corruption allegations and pressure from disappointing national team performances. His resignation comes ahead of a general election for the federation next month. Reports indicate that the federation is under investigation for alleged misuse of government funds meant for national team payments. President Bola Tinubu has initiated a comprehensive reform of Nigeria’s football administration in response to these issues, aiming to address longstanding governance and accountability concerns. Gusau's tenure faced criticism following the Super Falcons' failure to qualify for the 2027 Women’s World Cup.
