President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Mr. Amaju Melvin Pinnick has described as ‘well –deserved’ FIFA’s invitation of Executive Vice Chairman/CEO of AITEO Group, Mr. Francis Peters to next week’s FIFA Best Football Awards in London.
“The invitation is a recognition of AITEO’s excellent support for Nigerian Football, which continues to expand, and this is an indication of the several possibilities derivable from supporting the game of football. Other corporate organizations should take a cue.
“AITEO Group takes the cake for the way they came in big to back the NFF and Nigerian Football, and our partnership is one that is guaranteed to last for a long time and be mutually beneficial,” Pinnick said yesterday.
