The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) on Saturday said reports saying it called for the resignation of the embattled FIFA president Gianni Infantino were false.

The football body, in a post on X, asked the public to disregard the reports.

“Contrary to reports, especially on social media, @thenff has never asked and is not asking for @FIFAcom President, Mr. Gianni Infantino to step down as FIFA PRESIDENT,” it said.

“This is outright falsehood. Kindly disregard.”
