Super Eagles goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama has revealed that the Nigeria Football Federation never served him an official invitation to appear before any disciplinary hearing in Abuja on Tuesday.
The Lille of France goalkeeper was queried the Nigerian FA following the 32-year-old's comment concerning NFF’s choice of Ahmadu Stadium, Kaduna for Eagles Afcon qualifier against Chad played on June 13,2015 insisting he only heard it in the media.
"I was told to apologise for my comments, which I did immediately and they told me that's fine," Enyeama told BBC Sport.
"Personally, as it was resolved in-house I thought that was the end of the matter. I only received a letter to cautioning me about it [my comments] and to avoid a repeat of such.
"But I only found out about a disciplinary hearing in the media but I didn't get any letter to that effect," he explained.
"As the captain I only raised our concerns about the venue before our game which didn't go down well with the football authority.
Enyeama could face a lengthy ban for his comments which the NFF feels was against the code of conduct signed by the players as well as his failure to attend Tuesday's hearing.
