April 8, 2016 – NFF President Amaju Pinnick Sacked: Chris Giwa Takes Over As Court Nullifies Pinnick’s Election Over Fraud
The President of the Football Federation of Nigeria, Mr Amaju Pinnick has been sent packing.
He was ordered to vacate his seat for the rightful owner Chris Giwa by a Jos High court today.
During GEJ’s tenure, Chris Giwa asked a court to nullify the fraudulent election that brought Pinnick into power but the case was put under the carpet due to Pinnick’s relationship with the former President.
During a court hearing in Jos today, Justice Musa Haruna Kurya nullified the election.
Pinnick however vowed to appeal the decision.
“This is not good for Nigerian football. We will definitely file for stay of execution,” – said the embattled NFF boss.
Chris Giwa won the election carried out in Warri a while back but Pinnick reportedly bribed his way into power.
Wht Rubbish country is this..if dis report is anything to write abt.Lawless country.so even if d GEJ ws in power d court cant do their justice right?waiting till new president to takover bfor dey can do dia justice..this is nonsense.nobody is above d law..been u rich or poor..power or powerless pple bcos d minor fil cheated.dis is not how to handle tins..if Mr Amaju is bn removed bcos of d crisis in our football house den is understndable but comin wit case of bribing his way to office is somtin dt supose to b and forgotten issue.but d Jos court did nt choose to follow d case bcos GEJ ws stil in office dt isa bad one..wht re dey teachin us d young Genaration.
To get to any office in Nigeria,you must either bribe your way in or know a politician/influential person.
Dis z absolute rubbish not even withstanding dat dere is nothing happening in dis country now dat seem so strange 2 me…if u ask ucheGod he ill tell u dat nigeria has no law
Two people fight for power and now our dear commentators have made the court the accused person in the matter. Oh!!!
Let the rightful owner occupy the seat. Yeye dy smell.
nah them sabi
They should keep blaming the former president for everything because he’s not an hausa or a yoruba man. I don’t even believe that Giwa is the rightful owner. They’re all politicians and can do anything to bribe their way to a particular sit.
