Veteran and Senior Journalist Colin Udoh has been accused by Alhaji Gara Gombe Shuaibu for broadcasting some old pictures of Ahmadu Bello Stadium in Kaduna as a deliberate act to convinced the Football authorities to take the Super Eagles Match against Libya away from Kaduna so that Akwa Ibom Stadium can host the match.

Gara Gombe took to his Facebook wall to speak to NFF Amaju Pinnick, Mohammed Sanusi, Patrick Pascal and and team coach Gerhot Rohr, "It has come to my notice that some people arround NIGERIAN football have started a deliberate campaign against the SUPER EAGLES not to play their AFCON Qualifier against LIBYA in KADUNA. Kaduna is part of NIGERIA and Has good grassed pitch good enough to host any football match. The pictures being circulated on social media by COLLIN UDOH Someone who claimed to be a senior Journalist from AKWA IBOM are all lies and an old picture of AHMADU BELLO STADIUM.
Therefore COLLINS Must know that it is not only GODSWILL AKPABIO STADIUM in UYO that is good enough to host Super Eagles Matches. UDOH should tell us when last he visited KADUNA that he will just sit somewhere and be posting rubbish.
Please the NFA should send a TEAM to cofirm the state of the pitch.LAZY people can not sit in one corner in lagos and think other part of NIGERIA is not good to be involve in NATIONAL AFFAIRS. Natural grass is the best surface you can play football and ABS has it."
He concluded with, "ENOUGH OF THESE SENTIMENT AND POLITICS."
Gara Gombe is Gombe State former FA Chairman and a strong stakeholder in Nigeria Football and Government and will never stop talking when seeing anything going wrong in Football and Government.
