Nigeria Football Federation president Aminu Maigari has admitted that the football body's financial troubles run deep.
Super Eagles head coach Stephen Keshi made headlines recently when it was revealed that he was still owed salaries dating back to the end of the African Cup of Nations in February.
The NFF boss admitted to financial trouble but emphasised that Keshi will not be treated differently to everyone else.
"Yes we are owing Keshi, so what?" Maigari told reporters after collecting his Sports Administrator of the Year award.
"Keshi is not the only employee in the NFF who has not got his salary. We have about 11 national teams and all have coaches.
"It is only fair that we treat them equally. My management staff have not received their salaries for over a year and nobody is making noise about it.
He added: "We have to be very careful the way we amplify this Keshi salary issue. If this is unduly amplified we will be downgrading our country.
"Apart from salary, Keshi doesn't pay for anything. The house he lives in is paid for by NFF, the food he eats is NFF, his movement (transport) is NFF. So what are we talking about?"
