The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has allegedly set
aside $800,000 (about N138.4 million) to sponsor 10
Nollywood stars to cheer the Super Eagles during the
2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. Nollywood stars are
currently lobbying to be selected, reports
Afrikansoccer.com.
In the financial plan presented to the National
Assembly, the NFF had revealed its decision to invite
the duo of Chinedu Ikedieze and Osita Iheme,
popularly called Aki and Pawpaw and eight other
Nigerians in the entertainment industry for the world
football fiesta in June.
But the General Secretary, Musa Amadu debunked it
all yesterday saying, "we are not taking any
Nollywood star to Brazil. There's no truth in the
agency report that you are telling me about. A
Nollywood star visited me but he is my friend and it
had nothing to do with the World Cup in Brazil."
