Former NFF Presidential aspirant, Idah Peterside said there were positive vibes in his conversation with newly elected NFF president, Ibrahim Gusau.
Ibrahim Gusau won the election by a significant margin of 39 votes against Idah’s 1 to emerge as the 40th president of NFF.
Moments after the outcome of the votes were declared, ‘Gusau whispered in my ear that he would love us to work together, because I fought in the election with a brave heart.’
The former Super Eagles Goalkeeper said he never intended to quit, even with the odds stacked against him during the election.
‘Despite how obvious it was that the rerun was looking like a one way streak, with the margin from the first round of the polls. I knew I just had to stay in the race for courage to those following and watching the race; you never give up.’
Idah took a dig at his fellow aspirants who threw in the towel, ‘It will not feel right if everyone backs out and leave the position to the winner on the platter of gold.’
