The Guild of Sports Editors, Tuesday, told the board of the Nigeria Football Federation NFF that they must be ready to resign from the body if they failed to guide the Super Eagles to the 2026 World Cup finals scheduled to be held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The body, which comprises all the managers of sports departments in the country’s major media organizations, said it viewed with dismay the poor performance of the Super Eagles in the ongoing qualifying series for the World Cup, adding that it is unacceptable that Nigeria is struggling in fifth position in a group that comprises Lesotho, Rwanda, Benin Republic, Zimbabwe, and South Africa.
Rising from a meeting yesterday, the Guild said that although the situation in Group C looks irredeemable after four games, Nigeria could still qualify for the World Cup if the NFF puts its house in order.
