President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau has charged participants at the CAF B-License coaching course to adroitly apply themselves to what they have learnt in the course of the programme that spanned over seven months and four modules.

Gusau, who is also President of the WAFU-B Zone, made this exhortation in Abuja on Thursday at the closing ceremony of the coaching course.

The first module of the course took place 7th – 12th April, while the second module commenced on Monday, 6th October and ended on 10th October. The third module took place 20th – 24th October, and the fourth and final module was implemented from Monday, 3rd November.

“I take pride in our achievements thus far, and although we have a year remaining in our tenure, I remain hopeful that, by the grace of God, we will reach our intended goals.

Since assuming office, we have facilitated the CAF B, CAF C and CAF D License programs. The CAF C was exclusively for women – an important step considering Nigeria’s prominence in women’s football across Africa,” he stated.

He further emphasized the importance of involving former international players in these initiatives, highlighting, “We recognize the wealth of experience among our ex-internationals, and it is essential to harness their expertise within these programs.”

Gusau also expressed his satisfaction upon receiving positive feedback from the CAF Education Officer, Mr. Honour Janza who noted the impressive level of commitment and professionalism displayed by the participating coaches throughout the program.
