President of Nigeria Football
Federation, Amaju Pinnick has sent Dolphins FC of Port Harcourt star Emem Eduok
out of the camp of Super Eagles’ B. Eduok who is
enmeshed in controversial transfer document crisis was ordered out of the camp
yesterday in which the team is preparing for a two legged international
friendly matches in the United Arab Emirates.
“We are not happy with the cloud of controversy over his transfer issue and it is a terrible distraction to the team and Nigeria football generally. Telling him to leave the camp does not mean we are indicting him. We will carry out an investigation and whoever is found guilty, be he/she an agent or player manager or an official of his club, will be duly sanctioned,” Pinnick said at the NFF Secretariat in Abuja.
The NFF President therefore
mandated the Chairman of Technical and Development Committee, Felix
Anyansi-Agwu to conduct an investigation into the matter and report back to the
Executive Committee at its meeting in Lagos on Thursday.
“We have to do this (send the boy out of camp) to serve
as a deterrent to others. We are not blaming the player for anything yet;
investigation will unravel who is guilty. But the distraction and controversy
the matter has generated is not good for the camp.”
The Super Eagles B are
preparing to face 2015 Africa Cup of Nations –bound
Cote d’Ivoire in a friendly in Abu Dhabi on Sunday.
