HAHAHAHAHAHAHA FIFA is going to LOVE this!!! I can just see it now: Nigeria will be banned from all FIFA sanctioned competitions.

This is pretty sick, though, and is indicative of so many of Africa's problems in general: it seems like people there just want to a leg up on the next guy at any cost. Government is a way to get rich and get your way, not serve the people, money will get you anything, etc. I guess those attitudes, while pretty prevalent here in the States as well, are just played out in different ways due to the larger influence of the rule of law here...or something...This is definitely not a positive step for Nigerian nation, let alone Nigerian football...
