The Football Federation (NFF) has approved yearly support of N200 million for the Nigeria National (NNL), Nationwide League one and Nigeria women football league (NWFL).

This was contained in a statement issued after the end of the NFF Executive Committee meeting in Abuja on Tuesday.

According to the statement, the annual support will continue until the three bodies “attain financial stability.”

In addition, the statement revealed the sharing formula will be agreed upon later even as it hinted that the commitment will be reviewed yearly to ascertain which league needs more support.

However, the NFF warned the leagues not to relax due to the release of the funds.
