Shaibu-led NFF reconciliation committee brokers peace between retired and active football players

On Thursday, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Reconciliation Committee urged members of the All Nigeria Football Players Union (ANFPU) and the Professional Footballers Association of Nigeria (PFAN) to join forces for the benefit of active and retired players.

Chairman of the committee, Philip Shaibu, while meeting the two unions in Benin, said they needed to settle all lingering issues that have hampered their unions’ smooth running and progress.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the NFF Executive Committee inaugurated the five-man reconciliation committee to look into the misunderstanding between the ANFPU and PFAN.
