SWAN Orders Nationwide Boycott of NFF Activities

The Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) announced a nationwide boycott of all activities related to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), including the upcoming Annual General Assembly (AGA) in Ibadan, Oyo State. SWAN's decision follows the NFF's exclusion of the association from its Congress, the federation's highest decision-making body.

SWAN criticized the NFF's actions as regressive and detrimental to Nigerian football, emphasizing the importance of the media in the sport's growth. The association urged the NFF to restore its place in the Congress and denounced the federation's divisive approach to football administration.

SWAN's directive reflects its stance against the NFF's continued marginalization of media professionals in football governance.
