The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) yesterday denied the reported ‘poor conditions’ in the camp of the Super Eagles B in Pretoria, South Africa, where the team is preparing for the Rwanda 2016 African Nations Championship billed to kick off on January 16.

In faulting the report, which alleged that the team was supplied ‘inferior’ NIKE kits at the pre-CHAN camp, NFF’s Assistant Director (Communications), Ademola Olajire, said: “The Super Eagles B delegation is heading to Rwanda on Friday (15th January). This report has come out at this time to demoralize players and officials ahead of the Championship.”

Thenff.com also quotes Super Eagles’ Media Officer, Toyin Ibitoye, as describing the report as the handiwork of a detractor and that the reality on ground is far from what was painted by the reporter.
 
“We don’t know where the story of ‘poor conditions’ is coming from. All the officials in camp have been commending the NFF for arranging for the team to train at such a world–class facility as the High-Performance Centre in Pretoria.
 
“The training kits are top-quality, so also the match jerseys which were brought in by the team administrator. They were kits supplied direct to the Federation by NIKE. The team trained in Abuja for two weeks before heading to Pretoria, and everyone saw the kits they used.”
