The president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Mr Amaju Melvin Pinnick, has commended WAFU Zone B boss Kwesi Nyantakyi for his consistency in leadership.
Mr Nyantakyi was re-elected president of the association yesterday, beating Djibrilla Hima Hamidou from Niger narrowly.
And Mr. Pinnick says his leadership had made it possible for the zone to become pacesetters on the continent over the years, thus, delegates reposed their confidence in him to continue his work for the body.
“WAFU Zone B currently leads in Africa in terms of honours in continental competitions and choosing him again will help build our brand to a higher level based on our previous successes,” Pinnick is quoted by Daily Graphic.
“In this election there is no victor and there is no vanquished because we are one people and we are going to remain very united because we know that this is the future of African football,” he added.
Delegates from the seven member countries; namely Nigeria, Niger, Benin, Togo, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Burkina Faso and Nigeria were in Accra yesterday for the congress held at the Movenpick Hotel.
Nyantakyi pulled four votes out of the total votes cast.
