Okumagba: Pinnick’s FIFA Council seat loss setback for Nigerian football
The chairman of the Unified Supporters Club of Nigeria, Vincent Okumagba has described as a “setback,” the failure by Amaju Pinnick to retain his FIFA Council seat. Pinnick, a former NFF President, lost by a single vote at the poll held yesterday, in Cairo, Egypt, as part of the 14th CAF Extraordinary Congress. He scored 28 votes, only one short of both Ahmed Yahya of Mauritania and Souleman Hassan Waberi of Djibouti, who each scored 29 votes to make it to the exalted panel.
