Wash And Wear Of Jerseys Report, NFF Says Someone Is Interested In Embarrassing The Nation
Published: May 29, 2016
The Nigeria Football Federation has played down reports which claimed that the Super Eagles could not exchange jerseys with the Malian National Team on Friday because the players do not have enough and only do ‘wash-and-wear’ of jerseys.
Team administrator Dayo Enebi Achor has claimed that the Malian players never offered to exchange jerseys after the international friendly at the Stade Robert Diochon.
“We have received calls from Nigeria that people are happy about the performance of this young team against Mali,” said Dayo Enebi to thenff.com.
“Most people believe that we are on to a good thing with this crop of players but someone is only interested in spewing falsehood to try and embarrass the nation.
“We use new jerseys for every match, and we exchange jerseys when it is necessary. The jerseys belong to the players and they are free to do whatever they want with them after these two matches.”
Meanwhile, Chairman of the NFF Media and Publicity Committee, Hon. Suleiman Yahaya-Kwande has informed that the new jerseys designed for Nigeria will be unveiled at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in August.
