The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has approved the extension of the tenure of the executives of the Katsina State Football Association (FA) to September 2023.
Mr Nasir Sani-Gide, the spokesperson of the state FA who confirmed this on Thursday in Katsina, said the original tenure ended on June 22.
According to him, the extension was announced in a letter dated June 16, 2023 and signed by the state’s FA Secretary, Mr Abubakar Galadima.
He said the extension was granted following an emergency congress by the board where a vote of confidence was passed on the Aminu Balele-Kurfi-led board.
The board resolved to extend the tenure of the FA executives to enable them to have the time to conduct free, fair and all-inclusive elections.
