Chris Giwa, factional President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has been thrown out of the Glass House by the Department of State Services (DSS) Reports have it that the DSS stormed the Glass House on the orders of President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday. The Amaju Pinnick-led Executive Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is back to the federation’s secretariat to direct affairs in earnest, NFF General Secretary Mohammed Sanusi said on Monday. Sanusi who also said he had returned to his duties in the federation’s secretariat at Wuse in Abuja told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) the situation was now under control. The atmosphere at the secretariat’s Wuse Zone 7 offices was calm as staff went about their duties. A number of Department of State Services (DSS) officials, who were reported to have taken over the premises some minutes earlier, were also seen on duty. “I am back to my office, and the Pinnick-led board is back,’’ Sanusi told NAN. “When the DSS officials came in, they refused to allow anyone to enter the premises. But I came in and spoke with the staff and urged them to be law-abiding. “I told them to bear in mind that they are civil servants and should not get involved in the politics. Thereafter, I ushered all into their offices and everyone is going about their duties,’’ he added. Source: JoelsBlog Media |
