The State Minister for Sports also said, 'Players are taking the country forward. Sports organizers and the Ministry of Youth and Sports are also equal partners. Journalists are also taking the country's sports fields to the villages. They are also proud partners. So I am shocked to hear such comments about journalists.

Regarding the ban of the former general secretary of Bafuf Abu Naeem Sohag by FIFA, the State Minister for Sports said, "This ban by FIFA is shameful for us. Buff is investigating this. The Parliamentary Standing Committee of the Ministry of Youth and Sports has also directed an investigation. FIFA is a powerful organization. Therefore, we will not do any work, which will affect the country after the individual.
