A Federal High Court sitting in Jos, Plateau State today nullified the election that brought NFF President, Amaju Pinnick into office. The court also ordered Chris Giwa to take over. The duo of Adama Yahaya and Obinna Ogba had approached the court to re-list the suit against Pinnick which they withdrew after the intervention of former President Jonathan.
Reacting to the verdict, Pinnick said, “It is disappointing we are still taking football matters to civil courts. We will definitely appeal this case.”
Chris Giwa on the other hand was elated.“This is victory for Nigeria football. The right ruling has been made and we are taking over immediately.”
