1. PFAN has written the LMC and Adamawa state Government demanding full investigations into the allegations surrounding the Adamawa United FC administration and the maltreatment of players.
News making the rounds suggest that players in this club earn between N50,000 and N80,000 as monthly salaries contrary to the N150,000 minimum wage stipulated by the LMC in the club Licensing agreement.
It is also alleged that the players are camped in hostels before their matches and made to travel very long hours on match days, a situation that has left the union saddened and very worried.
PFAN rather than seek the jugular is more interested in the immediate upgrade ( should the allegations be true) of the players’ salaries and an improved all-round welfare package.
PFAN president Tijani Babangida MON has also directed the Adamawa PFAN leadership for due diligence on the matter and report back.
PFAN will explore all possible creative and diplomatic means towards improving the Lives and Livelihoods of our players.
2. PFAN will be appointing 3 comrades to represent the union in a joint committee with the players Intermediary Association.
This committee will be saddled with the responsibility of fashioning out grounds and modalities for a possible synergy between both organizations. This partnership has become even more expedient considering the current situation of the Nigerian player and the need to provide a lasting solution.
The partnership will also aim to bring sanity and professionalism into the Nigerian football space.
3. Troubled by the slow pace of work by some PFAN committees, the president will be appointing an M & E ( monitoring and evaluation) committee.
This committee will monthly evaluate all committees and their assignments/projects and advise the leadership on regular basis. Underperforming committees could be disbanded and or switched without notice.
4. President Tijani Babangida MON has directed that the PFAN diaspora ambassadors immediately begin the registration of members worldwide.
They were also encouraged to establish platforms for their regions and promote PFAN activities.
The PFAN ambassadors are Joshua Kator, PFAN ambassador to Europe.
b. Emeka Ezeugo, PFAN ambassador to the USA and Canada. c. Comrade pastor Taribo West MON, PFAN ambassador to Africa.
The ambassadors are the only accredited personnel authorized to deal on behalf of PFAN in diaspora and within their jurisdictions.
