NFF President, Amaju Pinnick has expressed his delight after the federation sealed a deal with Telecommunications giant, MTN as the official telecoms for the Super Eagles.
Pinnick said the deal is one of the most sought-after in Africa.
He said: “This is one of the most sought-after partnerships in African football and we are very excited about it.
“We believe that in carrying out sustainable sports development, you need a company that has gone through all levels of growth. That is MTN.
“When we came into the NFF board, all our existing partners were exiting from their contracts. We had to start from scratch and now we can look back in excitement because of where we are now.
“We are not done yet. We want to see Nigerian football achieving 90 per cent financial independence… we have gained so much respect in the world.
“We are glad that as we start our Qatar 2022 World Cup journey, MTN is starting with us.”
Super Eagles started their World Cup qualifiers on a winning note with a 2-0 win over Liberia at the Teslim Balogun Stadium.
