Former Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president Sani Abdullahi Lulu has urged FIFA and the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to clarify the circumstances of Ibrahim Gusau's resignation before deciding how to address the leadership vacuum in Nigerian football. Lulu said it would be premature for FIFA and CAF to consider establishing a Normalisation Committee without first speaking directly with Gusau, who resigned as NFF president alongside former secretary-general Mohammed Sanusi and several members of the federation's executive committee. The former NFF boss made the call while explaining why he refused to endorse a position paper prepared by a group of former NFF presidents and secretaries-general during their recent engagement with the FIFA/CAF delegation in Abuja. According to Lulu, he expected Gusau and Sanusi to participate in the meeting with the international football governing bodies to explain the circumstances that led to their resignations.
