The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has taken a significant step toward ensuring the Super Eagles’ success in their FIFA World Cup qualification campaign by announcing Carloha, the exclusive dealer of Chery vehicles, as its official automobile partner. This strategic alliance aims to strengthen Nigerian football, supporting not just the Super Eagles but also the Super Falcons and other national teams.
The NFF’s partnership with Carloha marks a major milestone in Nigerian football’s commercial and operational development. The deal, unveiled in Abuja, comes at a crucial time as the Super Eagles prepare for the next phase of their FIFA World Cup qualifiers. With a renewed focus on securing a spot in the global tournament, the NFF believes this sponsorship will provide much-needed logistical and financial support.
Carloha, known for its premium Chery vehicle distribution, will supply the NFF with a fleet of modern automobiles, ensuring seamless transportation for national team players, coaches, and officials.
This partnership is expected to enhance the federation’s operational efficiency, particularly in player scouting, match preparations, and team logistics.
In his remarks, NFF President Ibrahim Gusau emphasized the importance of strong corporate partnerships in football development.
“This collaboration with Carloha is more than just sponsorship; it is a commitment to the long-term growth of Nigerian football. We are focused on securing a place in the FIFA World Cup, and with the right support, our national teams will thrive.” Gusau stated.
Carloha’s leadership also expressed enthusiasm about supporting Nigerian football. A representative from the company highlighted their vision of blending sports and automobile excellence to promote national pride. “Football is a unifying force in Nigeria, and we are proud to be part of this journey with the Super Eagles and Super Falcons,” the spokesperson said.
The timing of this partnership could not be more critical. Following their recent performances at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), the Super Eagles have gained momentum as they aim for World Cup qualification. Strengthened by Carloha’s backing, the team now has additional resources to streamline operations, improve logistics, and enhance their preparation process.
This deal also extends support to the Super Falcons, Nigeria’s dominant force in African women’s football. As the women’s team continues to assert its dominance on the continent, the added resources from Carloha will contribute to their success in upcoming international competitions.

With increased investment from top brands, the federation hopes to foster a more sustainable and globally competitive football ecosystem.
As the Super Eagles look ahead to crucial qualifying matches, this collaboration with Carloha sets the stage for a more structured and professional approach to football management in Nigeria. Fans will be eagerly watching how this new partnership translates into on-pitch success as the national teams gear up for their respective international campaigns.
