NFF speaks on Kanu Nwankwo’s stolen medals

The Nigeria Football Federation has reacted to the cries from former Super Eagles captain, Nwankwo Kanu.

Kanu announced yesterday that all his medals which he kept at his hotel in Victoria Island Lagos were all stolen. The former Arsenal and Inter Milan player is in a case with AMCON whom he has accused of trying to take over his hotel despite the case still being in court.

Reacting to the situation, NFF president Amaju Pinnick said Nwankwo was “in intense pain” at their loss.

“Kanu worked very hard from a humble beginning to accumulate whatever he has today and to earn those precious valuables,” he said in a statement.

“We respectfully call on the Nigeria police and other security agencies to work hard at unravelling the perpetrators of this nefarious act.”
