Super Eagles get code of conduct booklet in Atlanta

The Nigeria Football Federation is taken nothing to
chance as it seeks a decent performance at this
year’s World Cup in Brazil and better conduct by
players and officials of all national team in the
future.
Towards this end the federation during the week in
faraway, Atlanta Georgia, United States handed out
the much-hyped hand book on code of conduct
while in the national team to players and officials of
the Super Eagles. The 18-page document clearly
outlines what is expected of players, officials and
even the federation during camping and major
tournaments.
NFF President, Alhaji Aminu Maigari, in the company
of Chairman, Technical Committee Barr Chris Green
and NFF Director, Technical, Dr Emmanuel Ikpeme
came with the documents and handed them over to
the team through Team Adminstrator, Dayo Enebi
Achor, who has since distributed them to the
players and officials of the team.

“The document is done in good faith and to ensure
that players and officials know their obligations and
how to properly conduct themselves, while the NFF
will ensure that it also fulfills its own part of the
bargain during major tournaments”, Maigari said.
The Nigerian delegation to the United States is
expected back in Nigeria on today evening after
playing a goalless draw against the El Tri of Mexico
in an international friendly preparatory to Mundial
2014 in Brazil. The team will arrive through the
Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos.
