activities for 10 and 15
years respectively by the
Nigeria Football
Federation (NFF).
This decision was taken at
the Saro-Maria hotel in
Addis Ababa by the executive committee of the
Nff who claimed their decision to ban the two
former top ranked board members of the
football house was based on the report of an
investigative committees headed by Barrister
Chris Green and Chief Emeka Inyama.
Green’s committee looked into Ogunjobi’s alleged
role in the former Flying Eagles star, Kayode
Olarenwaju’s transfer saga, while Inyama’s
committee probed into the merit of Baribote’s
petition against NFF president, Aminu Maigari.

communiqué draft committee, Emeka Inyama,
the NFF however said its decisions to ban these
two seasoned football administrators is subject

contained in the NFF Statutes.

a four-man committee to investigate an
allegation of bribery against a member of the
executive committee, Barrister Olaleye Adepoju

Organising and Disciplinary Committee (O&D) of
the Federation.
Amongst other decisions, the committee ordered
the Nigeria National League to deduct three
points and three goals from Gabros
International FC’s campaign in this year’s
competition, as a direct result of the club’s
failure to pay CHF2, 000 being cost of

subject to ratification of the Congress of
