Pinnick in the saddle of the DSFA in Asaba
Former Nigeria captain Austin 'Jay Jay' Okocha has successfully
transitioned from player to administrator as he won election as
chairman of the Delta State Football Association on Friday.
Okocha, 41, polled 26 out of 27 votes to win the seat and replace
Amaju Pinnick who vacated the role after becoming president of the
Nigeria Football Federation September 2014.
The former PSG, Bolton Wanderers and Hull City player becomes one of
the few former footballers to enjoy such huge transition from the
field into the boardroom in Nigerian football.
The three-time World Cup player is presently head of the NFF Technical
Study Group.
