Football Federation (NFF) has described the action of the newly
elected board led by Chris Giwa to occupy the secretariat of the NFF
as illegal.
Ephraim Chukwuemeka, a member of the interim Committee who visited the
NFF secretariat yesterday said the election was a sham because the
August 26 congress was only to chart a new road map for the conduct of
elections into the board of the NFF .
"What is happening here is illegality and they are indirectly inviting
FIFA to ban Nigeria . We are not interested in FIFA banning Nigeria
but if it happens nobody should blame us because we are standing on
the path of the truth.
"FIFA had said there should be no election but we should map the way
forward for election which we have done. We have fixed election for
Sept. 4. So anybody who is saying that he is the president of NFF is
occupying the place illegally. We are not interested in using force
because the law will take its course," Chukwuemeka said.
He said the interim Committee would be assuming duty on Monday with
the General-Secretary of the NFF.
