Dalung needs dialogue

If anybody is to step down here then it should be Solomon Dalung.

This is a joke! Some people are toying with FIFA ban. By the time they ban the country for the next four years all your eyes will clear. No court has jurisdiction on football affairs. Go and look for somewhere to play your politics. After FIFA has recognised Amaju and he has the support of CAF president you fellows are just joking.

Football matters are never decided in court. Clowns

na wa oooo....... everybody needs to start stepping down.

And who is gonna tell the oloribobo of a minister to step down too?,after all he was more involved in the last olympics fiasco in Brazil than anyone else when he failed to take adequate care of the boys and still even had the guts to tell the boys to surrender the money that was gifted the team by a Japanese businessman after seeing that all pleas and entreaties to collect the money on behalf of the team fell on deaf ears,he doesn't even deserve to be on the that seat more than Amaju Pinnick who despite his shortcomings is still seen to be progressing albeit very slowly ,on this idiot's part no appreciable impact since he became sports minister ,all he does is sit in his office and collect the money allocated to his minister and estacodes,no youth development programmes,nothing at all.

This man does not have any business in being a minister even if it's a minister of kitchen affairs.
Amaju Pinnick has brought so much to the Glass House. He is very close to powers that be in CAF and FIFA. And I ask, Mr Solomon Incompetence Dalung, who among both of u should step down? Amaju Pinnick or Solomon Dalung (United State of Nigeria)

Orders? That man is crazy!

Hope this will not affect our Nation's qualification matches.

Are we the only country under FIFA? Rules are rules.

I thought court orders are not obeyed in Nigeria....otherwise how come Shiite leader is still in detention and also dasuki.....if we wanna move forward double standard and selective justice has to be eliminated

Naija and nonesense.

An ordinary political appointee ordering an elected man to step down. Make una dey expect FIFA hammar

The sport minister is a slowpoke. Taking sides with his long time friend. They have tried everything to bring Pinnick down since Buhari came into office. This lot under Buhari are Dumbest of leaders Nigeria has been cursed with. Clueless and very tribal they are.

I am very sure the sport minister is ignorant of FIFA rules protecting NFF from government intervention.

He should seek for advice before washing his dirty linen in public

Our justice system is a disaster. They entertain ALL cases including those that lack jurisdiction to, once you can pay the judges.

It is binding in all football federations to seek redress in all sporting cases at the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS). Anything contrary amounts to violation.

The role of the ministry of sport is a support and complementary one, not a controlling role. This is why the minister cannot APPOINT the president of the NFF as such is determined by election within the federation unlike other parastatals.

A directive has reportedly been given by the federal government through the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports Development that Amaju Pinnick should step down from his position as NFF President.


A statement to this effect was issued by Nneka Ikem Anibeze, the special aide on media to the Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung, Premium Times reports.

In the statement, the sports ministry directed the Nigeria Football Federation, a parastatal under it, to comply with a court order setting aside the election into the Executive Committee of the NFF held on September 30, 2014.


Mr Dalung said the directive followed a written notification signed for the Attorney-General of the Federation requesting the sports ministry to ensure compliance.

The notification from the justice minister was quoted as follows:

“I have been directed to notify you of the Orders dated June 5th 2018 made by Honorable Justice M. H. Kurya sitting at the Federal High Court Jos in respect of the above mentioned suit between Yahaya Adama Vs Alhaji Aminu Maigari which states that the election of the NFF held on August 26, 2014 under the leadership of Amb Chris Giwa be given recognition pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice filed in this case and that the purported ban of the Executive Committee elected on August 26, 2014 from football activities of the NFF is unconstitutional, null and void.

“It is trite law that court orders are sacrosanct and any acts of disobedience to it constitutes threat to the rule of law. Consequent upon the above, you are hereby advised to comply with the orders of court made therein which for now, is the valid and binding order of court, in the absence of any other subsisting order or judgment to the contrary.

Based on this, Mr Dalung directed the parties involved to comply with the court order.

“This is a court order and not from Dalung. I will not want to go to Kuje prison because of disobedience of court orders. Therefore, I hereby comply with the court orders of June 5th 2018, while Mr Amaju Pinnick and others are also directed to comply with same.”

FIFA had earlier written to Mr Giwa and others, saying it only recognised the Amaju Pinnick-led NFF. FIFA has repeatedly warned Nigeria and other countries to ensure there was no government interference in football. Such interference leads to suspension of a country’s national team from global and continental football.
