The Director of the Nigeria Football Association (NFA), Idris Adama says he will not feel bad if the association goes ahead with plans to advertise his job.

 

“There is nothing wrong with a new administration seeking a new management team to drive its vision,’’ Adama told select media in Abuja on Friday.

 

He, however, observed that there would be wisdom in working with those already on ground, so as not to make avoidable mistakes.

 

He said he was not afraid of losing his job in the event that the association proceeded to advertise his current job. “It takes wisdom and understanding for a leader to work with the people he has met on ground’.

 

“But some leaders will not be comfortable working with the people they have met on ground; the new leadership may need to engage those it feels can deliver its vision,’’ Adama said.

 

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) gathered that some members of NFA board appear poised to remove some key management staff whose loyalties perceived to be in doubt.

 

NAN gathered that the decision to advertise the position of the marketing director might have been endorsed at the NFA board meeting in Abuja on Wednesday.

 

The decision was, however, not part of the communiqué released newsmen at the end of the meeting.

 

Reacting, Ademola Olajire, the Assistant Director, Communications, NFA said if there were plans to advertise some key positions, it would be with Establishment Committee.

 

“I am aware they have been meeting, but I am not privy to their plans’’.
