The world football governing body FIFA, has explained why it banned the Nigeria Football Supporters Club, from taking their musical instruments into stadiums, saying the decision was made by local security authorities.
Although the Nigerian supporters have graced every FIFA tournament since the World Cup in 1994 with their drums and other musical instruments, they have been prevented from doing so in Brazil.
“The fans cannot enter the Fifa World Cup arenas with musical instruments of any kind,” a FIFA spokesperson told KickOffNigeria.
