The Nigeria Football Federation
board headed by Amaju Pinnick
has been sacked by a Plateau
state high court on Thursday.
In granting the order, Justice
Ambrose Allagoa said the NFF
election conducted in Warri were direct flouting of the
orders of the court granted on September 19, 2014 which
directed that the NFF congress not to hold.
"I have set aside all the proceedings and decisions of the
Warri Extra Ordinary meeting of the 20th September and
the Elective Congress of 30th September which were
direct contravention of the orders of this court as granted
on the 19th September,’ said Justice Allagoa.
"Nobody should foist on the court a complete case of
hopelessness so that the principles of law and justice can be
upheld.
"It’s not enough to say that the order of court was
wrongly made, no matter how unorthodox, its subsisting
orders, unless set aside, remains law and must be respected.
"Defendants in this matter have not filed any counter
affidavits in this court to contest the facts. There is
neither motion nor Memorandum of Appearance. This is a
court of Record. On this note, the court has no option to
protect the integrity and sanctity of court. Court orders
are not tea party. Nobody is above the law. Impunity
must be stopped.
Justice Allagoa has fixed November 25, 2014 for hearing of
substantive matters in the case.
