A fast-growing Nigeria airline, ValueJet, on Saturday signed a partnership agreement with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) as the Official Airline of the NFF and the National Teams, with a pledge to fly the teams to higher heights as they chase continental and global laurels.
At a ceremony that took place at the Remo Stars Sports Institute in Ikenne-Remo, the Chief Executive Officer/Accountable Manager of ValueJet, Capt. Omololu Majekodunmi, said the airline is delighted to become an official partner of Nigeria football, and is determined to work towards ensuring comfortable movement and timely presence of the National Teams at major international matches and championships.
“We are happy at this historic development. Nigeria football has a storied history and a passionate fan base. By joining forces with the NFF, we intend to bring fresh energy to the game and provide seamless travel solutions for our National Teams as they compete at home and abroad.
The Chairman of NFF Marketing and Sponsorship Committee, Alhaji Sharif Rabiu Inuwa, who stood in for the President of NFF, Ibrahim Musa Gusau, stated that the football-governing body is pleased to officially associate with ValueJet, even as the Super Eagles have been enjoying the airline’s services for more than a year.
“I am happy that we have formally consummated this partnership, though unofficially, ValueJet has been providing excellent services to the Super Eagles by flying them to away matches for about 16 months now.
“Players and officials have commended their general operations and the NFF is happy that this relationship has now been sealed.
NFF General Secretary, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, commended ValueJet for the professionalism, diligence and sincerity of its management and staff during the unfortunate saga in Libya in October 2024, when the Super Eagles were held hostage by the Libyan authorities during a 2025 AFCON qualifying match.
