World football ruling body FIFA has banned former Super Eagles coach Samson Siasia for life after the ethics committee found him guilty of bribery allegation.

A release Friday by FIFA confirmed that the former international has also been asked to pay a fine of CHF 50,000 ($51,000) about N18.5million.
The former U-23 coach is said to have accepted bribe in relation to the manipulation of matches in violation of the FIFA Code of Ethics.

The hammer is coming in the midst of emotional torture which the former Nantes striker is undergoing following the kidnap of his mother Madam Ogere Siasia.

Siasia’s 93 year old Father only recently raised alarm to security authorities even as he made passionate appeal to the kidnappers to release his wife who has been in their custody close to a month now.

The latest development means that Siasia who turned 52 on Wednesday will not only worry about the travails of his mother in the hands of kidnapperexo about the way forward for his football/coaching career.
The FIFA release Friday read thus;

“The adjudicatory chamber of the independent Ethics Committee has found Mr Samson Siasia, a former official of the Nigeria Football Federation, guilty of having accepted that he would receive bribes in relation to the manipulation of matches in violation of the FIFA Code of Ethics.

The formal ethics proceedings against Mr Siasia were initiated on 11 February 2019 and stem from an expensive investigation into matches that Mr Wilson Raj Perumal attempted to manipulate for betting purposes. This large-scale investigation was conducted by FIFA via its competent departments and in cooperation with the relevant stakeholders and authorities.

In its decision, the adjudicatory chamber found that Mr Siasia had breached art. 11 (Bribery) of the 2009 edition of the FIFA Code of Ethics and banned him for life from all football-related activities (administrative, sports or any other) at both national and international level. In addition, a fine in the amount of CHF 50,000 has been imposed on Mr Siasia. The decision was notified to Mr Siasia today, the date on which the ban comes into forces.

Samson siasia is a disgrace to Nigerian football. Who knows maybe Samson siasia sold the 2005 U-20 world cup against Argentina, because I can't understand those two stupid penalties we conceeded till date.

As much as this news saddens me, wrong is wrong! No matter who is involved. I hope there's a mix up somewhere.

Bad reputation

He who the gods want to destroy, they first make mad.
Virtually all his online monikers had invictusObi attached to it.
I can't be that silly.

NB: my post shouldn't be interpreted to be an endorsement of 'yahoo-yahoo'.

It's a pity for him. Let others learn lesson from this.

In other news, the gods of religion such as Jehovah, Allah, Moloch, El, Enki, Odin etc have been banned from having destructive dealings with humans such that now humans can start having mind evolution and liberation from religion.

Currently as I speak, Jehovah, Allah and their likes are locked up in a spiritual cage and this will be so for a thousand years. Within this time, human being shall have mind evolution and global liberation from religious thoughts. They will become more sciences oriented and think deep while attempting to solve problems. Superstitions and religious stories found in various religious books shall be defeated and the world would experience a great revolution.

Currently, Jehovah and Allah have been confined to a spiritual cage for 2 years, 11 months and 6 days already.

Peace to the world.

Did he fix matches for the Nigerian teams?
Did Nigeria team loss their matches through this acts?
If yes, then he should be banned from Nigeria completely.

Where’s the evidence that he was involved in the bribery? Which match did he manipulate?

Siasia should be given the chance to prove his innocence. How can Fifa take such decision without giving the man any opportunity to clear his name?

Nigerians and bribe

Trust Nigerians to rep Nigeria out there.
They never disappoint
