“If elected the president of NFF, I will change the entire football administration from analogue to computerized system,” he said.
Emeruwa said if elected his administration would come up with a policy to check the involvement of officials of the federation in player management.
He added that he would put in place institutions that would outlive his administration in order to gain the confidence of would-be sponsors.
“There is need to build strong institutions that will outlive every administration of the NFF,” the candidate said.
“Sponsors will always consider the structures before thinking of putting in money into the system,“ he added.
Emeruwa said also that no sponsor would invest in the sport without seeing the programme of the federation.
