(NEWS) SHOW OF SHAME: NFF Officials Fought Dirty in Dubai Over Cars • Match Tickets....SHOW OF SHAME: NFF Officials Fought Dirty in Dubai Over Cars • Match Tickets....

It was a show of shame last Friday before the Golden Eaglet and the Mexicans final match as NFF General Secretary Barrister Musa and the Federations First Vice President Chief Mike Umeh exchanged blows in public, right inside the stadium.

Eye witness account has it that problem started brewing early evening when Chief Umeh wondered why members of the League Management Committee were allocated “ better cars” than NFF chieftains.He then and there told a colleague that Musa was incompetent and not fit to handle NFF matters.

On getting to the stadium, Chief Umeh was given a Category 1 ticket and again he complained insisting that every country was given 20 VIP tickets and wondered why he could not have one as NFF Vice President.

At the stadium Chief Umeh boiled over when he saw members of the LMC in the VIP Box and challenged the GS who said he knew nothing about it “Oga two of us are sitting here, I don’t know anything about tickets besides I just arrived yesterday “the General Secretary replied.

He was shocked when Chief Umeh said “you are a useless man. I have to trek five minutes to ease myself in a competition that belongs to us?”

That really got Barrister Ahmadu angry and he told him to withdraw the statement. Instead Chief Umeh repeated it and the General Secretary said he was a “hopeless man”. As they were sitting together they rose to their feet and went for each other’s jugular saying a lot of unprintable things.

The intervention of some board members including Chief Inyama and some Management staff did little to assuage them.

It took some time to get Musa to leave the seat for another one.

A board member has called for a probe of the incidence when they get back home.

“It was shameful to say the least. Chief Umeh did not behave maturely but there is need to find out where all our VIP tickets went to,” he said.

Meanwhile, it was gathered that the NFF is spoiling for a war with the National Sports Commission, NSC over its penchant for sidelining it whenever football matters get to the presidency.
