State Football Association (FA) chairmen have denied they have dragged FIFA to the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) over the proposed setting up of a Normalisation Committee for Nigeria.
A statement signed by Gombe FA chairman, Yakubu Sarma, maintained there is no truth that 16 state FA chairmen have gone before CAS to kick against a Normalisation Committee for Nigerian football.
“At no time did 16 FA chairmen file any petition to the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS). The entire story is fake,” the statement read in part.
The chairmen said they are key stakeholders and partners in progress with both the NFF and National Sports Commission (NSC) and that they are not at war with either federation or the NSC.
