However, in a new twist, Ajayi who is a former NFF member, has insisted that the allegations are true.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a lot of mismanagement in the Nigeria Football Federation under Amaju Pinnick and I can tell you that for more than three years, there was no approval.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe board members were not aware of all the funds flying about, you can only talk of three or four people who are aware of those funds, there is no transparency.<\/p>\n
