I did not report Pinnick to EFCC, says Etebo

One of Super Eagles’ revelations at the just concluded Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup, Ogenekaro Etebo, is not ready to join ‘the enemies’ in pulling down the out-going President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick.

There were media reports earlier in the week that the midfielder, who recently signed for Stoke City in England, wrote a petition to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), calling for Pinnick’s head for refusing to pay him and other players after featuring for Warri Wolves FC.

Pinnick was the Commander-in-chief of Delta Sports, calling the shots in the Sports Commission, Warri Wolves FC and Delta FA when Etebo and Super Eagles goalkeeper, Daniel Akpeyi featured for the club.
