The Court of Appeal panel led by Justice Barika, together with Justices Okon Abang and Justice Banjoko, earlier today sacked the Nigeria Football Federation Board by setting aside and striking out all dubious orders obtained by deceit on September 29, 2022, to conduct the purported NFF illegal election of September 30th in Benin City.
The court struck out all processes concerning the NFF appeal and further ordered that the processes be deleted from all systems of the court forthwith, the chairman of the Professional Footballers Association of Nigeria task force, Harrison Jalla, tells globalsportsng.com.
Parties in the matter were represented by the following counsels: NFF, Chief Okutepa SAN, who was represented by Peace Omiri and Barrister Arnold from his chambers, while the PFAN Task Force was represented by Dr. Celsus Ukpong, Chief Rumson Baribote, and Mary Waribo.
In light of the above, any sacked NFF Board member parading himself after the ongoing AFCON in Ivory Coast would be risking criminal contempt proceedings
