[center]Adamu angry over Galadima’s nomination[/center]

FIFA’s executive committee suspended member, Dr. Amos Adamu, has questioned the decision of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to nominate one of its former chairman, Alhaji Ibrahim Galadima, to replace him on the board of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) executive committee.

Dr. Adamu, who is under ban from all football activities at local and international levels, according to FIFA’s directives, told Daily Sun sports in a telephone chat Wednesday that he was at a loss as regards the action of the NFF board which made the nomination, pointing out that it does not show that the NFF is interested in his appeal.

“FIFA took its decision but I’m not satisfied with it and the next thing I hear is that the NFF leadership has nominated Alhaji Ibrahim Galadima. I just don’t understand what NFF is doing when it is aware that I have decided to appeal the verdict of the Ethics Committee of FIFA.” The former Director General of the National Sports Commission, NSC, noted that it is an unfair thing to do and it would create confusion if his case sails through. He noted that it was rather ambigious for FIFA to clear him of corruption charges and yet slam a 3-year ban.

“I have nothing against Alhaji Galadima, who has been working with CAF over the years but his nomination for the executive committee at this time is not appropriate. I’ll leave the federation to its action and just watch as things unfold,” Dr. Adamu stressed. FIFA had on November 18, 2010 under the chairmanship of Claudio Sulser (Switzerland) passed the damming verdict on Adamu and five others. Those who made up the panel were: Petrus Damaseb (Namibia), Juan Pedro Damiani (Uruguay), Dominique Rocheteau (France), Dali Tahir (Indonesia) and Robert Torres (Guam), prohibiting them from participating in any football-related activity (administrative, sports or any other). They were said to have breached various articles of the FIFA Code of Ethics.

Aside from Adamu being banned from participating in any kind of football-related activity (administrative, sports or any other) at national and international level for a period of three years, he was fined CHF 10,000. His fellow executive committee member, Reynald Temarii (FIFA vice-president), was banned from participating in any kind of football-related activity (administrative, sports or any other) at national and international level for a period of one year and was further fined CHF 5,000.

Others who fell under the FIFA’s hammer are: Slim Aloulou (chairman of the FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber and member of the FIFA Players’ Status Committee) who was banned from taking part in any kind of football-related activity (administrative, sports or any other) at national and international level for a period of two years.

"Cattle Rearer" used here is a metaphor, So ethnicity doesn't matter.

It is wise for Nigeria to retain that job because, Ghana ,South Africa and many other countries are gunning for Adamu's position.

Sorry which Adamu? Is it same Adamu Amos that was bannedby FIFA or another Adamu?

U don finish am

I must say,adamu is a disgrace.But hey, lets be sincere to ourselves here, if any of us were in his shoes, there is a very high possibility that we would have also acted the way he did ( even worse for some of us ). he was just an unfortunate victim !!!!. What beats my imagination is that, why was it only adamu and the other guy that were approached by those journalist ?, are we saying that they would not have faulted if they were also approached. Anyway, like i said before, he was just an unfortunate victim and he is paying dearly for it.

Crusufixo, I nope you're joking.

no be your fault adamu. if bode george makes noise from jail and ibru dictates where she says so why not adamu blasting nff.
the issue with nigeria is that nigerian thieves are bolder than the innocent men.
i am not blaming him or surprised at his actions because he is only representing.
common thief
i always wonder what aged thieves like bode george, cecilia ibru and this adamu who is representing at international levels will be telling their children.
can i look into my father's face when i know that the man i call my father is a thief?
wow, this is a shame.

Can you imagine?what an effrontery.This can only happen in Nigeria.Adamu still get mouth

Where is his shame for bringing our name into further disrepute; and where is his remorse for bringing his former office into disrepute?

nawa oh so he can still talk, thiefu thiefu
