GettnHuge 1 Posted March 31, 2006 blah LAGOS (Reuters) - Football referees in Nigeria can take bribes from clubs but should not allow them to influence their decisions on the pitch, a football official said on Friday. Fanny Amun, acting Secretary-General of the Nigerian Football Association, said bribery was common in the Nigerian game. "We know match officials are offered money or anything to influence matches and they can accept it," Amun told Reuters on Friday. Amun first made the statement earlier in the week to a football seminar in the capital Abuja, prompting protests from other officials. "Referees should only pretend to fall for the bait, but make sure the result doesn't favor those offering the bribe," Amun said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
