The Nigeria Football Federation has extended its contract agreement with American kit manufacturers Nike until December 2026.
President of NFF, Amaju Pinnick revealed on Thursday that negotiations had been ongoing for the past month before Nike agreed to extend their relationship with Nigeria Football.
“We talked about several areas they needed to look into and we finally got a deal and extension of the contract until December 2026. I give the credit for this to Members of the NFF Executive Committee and the General Secretary. The new agreement lends credence to NIKE’s faith in Nigeria Football and what we are doing as a Federation.
It is a wake-up call for our other sponsors and partners to extend their agreements and for more players in Corporate Nigeria to support the Nigeria game.”

The impressive office is located at the expansive Ikeja Mall, in the heart of one of the city’s main business districts.
