The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has dismissed as outright falsehood reports claiming that it has banned Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen from the national team due to a recent social media outburst.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, NFF General Secretary Dr. Mohammed Sanusi expressed amazement at the reports, clarifying that no process has been initiated or concluded to ban the player from the team.

“The NFF hereby implores the media to join hands with the body to positively resolve issues and then focus on the big picture all the time, rather than needlessly escalate certain matters. There was no official communication from the NFF, yet some persons have gone to town to talk about a ban on Osimhen from the National Team. This is not good at all,” Dr. Sanusi stated.

He emphasized the Federation’s current focus on resolving issues within the Super Eagles and preparing for upcoming competitions.

“Our focus presently is to resolve all matters around the Super Eagles and be able to look ahead with confidence to the 2025 AFCON qualifiers and the remaining six matches of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification series,” he added.

Dr. Sanusi urged the media to avoid spreading false information that could further complicate the situation.

“This is not the time to spread falsehood and foul the public space the more,” he concluded.
