NFF Boss Maigari Released...finally by teniola55(m): 11:01am On Aug 28, 2014
Detained NFF president Aminu Maigari has finally regained his freedom along with fellow executive committee member Chris Green, an aide has informed AfricanFootball.com
“Maigari has been released by the security operatives. He was released in the morning from the special anti-robbery squad after he was handed to them by the Directorate of State Security Service,” said an aide of the NFF boss.
“No charges were pressed against him, neither was he or Green questioned on anything. It was clearly to prevent them from attending the general assembly of Tuesday, which FIFA insisted be presided by Maigari.”
Maigari, it was further learnt, was detained on orders of controversial former Rivers State police commissioner Joseph Mbu, who is now an assistant Inspector general of police.
Incidentally, sports minister Tammy Danagogo, who also was a commissioner in Rivers State, personally came to the SSS office yesterday to pick general secretary Musa Amadu for what later was termed “an elective congress”, which produced Chris Giwa as new NFF president.
Giwa moved into the NFF office Wednesday morning and thereafter addressed a dozen staff members, assuring them of improved welfare in his tenure as NFF president.
World football governing body FIFA are expected to soon rule on the unfolding drama in Nigeria.
