PROTECTING FOOTBALL, RESTORING NATIONAL PRIDE
Football occupies a special place in our national life. It brings Nigerians together across generations and communities, and our country has never lacked talent, passion or support for the game.
Yet, our results have too often fallen short of what Nigeria should expect.
I have therefore directed a comprehensive reform of Nigerian football following our repeated failures to qualify for major regional, continental and world tournaments.
The problems are structural, and our response must address them.

Ezinne Kalu 🇳🇬 being among the players to watch at the 2026 FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup makes perfect sense.
Her value goes beyond scoring and at 34, she has the ability to organize Nigeria 🇳🇬 that stand out. She understands how to manipulate defenses and make teammates better.
If Kalu controls the game, the D’Tigress can cause serious problems.
