Mikel Obi Urges NFF Board Sacking If Super Eagles Miss 2026 World Cup
Super Eagles legend, John Mikel Obi, has called for the sacking of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) board if the country fails to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Mikel expressed dissatisfaction with the leadership following the team's draw against Ghana.
He emphasized the importance of winning the upcoming matches to secure qualification. The NFF is currently led by Ibrahim Gusau, who was elected as President in September 2022.
Mikel believes that the board should take responsibility if the team does not make it to the World Cup. The fate of the team will be determined in the last two matches.
The legendary midfielder stressed the need for a change in leadership for Nigerian football's success.
