Chris Giwa Reportedly Ejected From NFF Secretariat As Nigeria Is Spared FIFA Sanction

 

Chris Giwa Giwa and his staff who occupied the NFF secretariat on July 2, has reportedly ejected from the secretariat of the Nigeria Football Federation by the operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS).

 

Recall that football governing body, FIFA had threatened to ban Nigeria if the dispute between Giwa and Amaju Pinnick, was not resolved.

 

According to TheCable, the DSS operatives, who carried out the ejection exercise on Monday, said they were working on instructions from above.

 

It was learnt that few hours after the exercise, Muhammed Sanusi, secretary-general of the NFF, was led to his office by the DSS operatives. He has since resumed his duties as head of the football federation secretariat in Nigeria.

 

The president’s office was also cleared in readiness for the resumption of Pinnick who will return to Nigeria on Tuesday.

 

Pinnick had been away supervising the CAF roundtable symposium on Africa’s performance at the recently-concluded 2018 Russia World Cup.
