A member of the Amputee Football Federation for Africa, Pius Asaba, on Thursday said that the World Amputee Football Federation has suspended Nigeria from participating in its activities.
Asaba told the News Agency of Nigeria in Lagos that the suspension was slammed because the country did not pay its annual affiliation fee since 2013.
He said that the sanction had denied the country’s national amputee football team from participating in the 2014 World Cup, scheduled to hold in Mexico from November 30 to December 10
This is a big blow to the country's football development being that it came at a time when Nigeria is going through another suspension given to the nation's football body(NFF) by the world football governing body FIFA.
