FIFA's World Ranking List Is Racist

I have never been a fan of FIFA at all since my childhood, reasons are because since i was born and now i am getting old, Sepp Blatter has remained FIFA president.

Consequently, since the ban of Nigeria from football events, i still have not been able to fathom the reason for the ban.

If the Nigerian government decides to remove from office who she remunerates, i don't think that's an odd thing to do besides he who pays the piper dictates the tune.

The more recent reason for this article is centered on the benchmark for drawing out the world ranking and the position our dear Nigeria occupies.

Nigeria is ranked the 34th best in the world and Bosnia and Herzegovina is ranked the 19th best in the world. Really? Seriously?

Bosnia that could not qualify from its group stage ranked higher than AFCON champions.

I think this list is racist!
