Enyeama had said he was not satisfied with the choice of Kaduna, following the current security conditions and challenges in parts of the North.
“I am concerned because of the security thing. I really don’t care where we play as long as there is going to be security and safety of the players and everyone coming to watch the match,” Enyeama had said.But the NFF was upset that the captain of the national team made such comments and queried the Lille goalkeeper. His case was also referred to the Ordinary & Disciplinary Committee of the NFF.
The NFF President, Amaju Pinnick, said the “uncomplimentary comments” cost the football body a huge sum of money.
The committee was ready to listen to Enyeama’s explanation on Tuesday, but the player did not show up, saying he was not invited.
“Enyeama was not at the sitting in Abuja on Tuesday because he was on holidays. However, his comments about the choice of Kaduna for the game against Chad were quite unbecoming,” Chairman of the committee, Christopher Green, was quoted as saying on SuperSport.
“He must apologise for his actions or face severe actions.”
