A Federal High Court sitting in Jos, Plateau State has sacked the Nigeria Football Federation President, Amaju Pinnick & ordered Chris Giwa to resume office as president of the football federation.
Before the court ruling, many Nigerians had demanded the resignation of Pinnick from office who blamed him for the failure of the Super Eagles to qualify for the AFCON 2017, same way they missed out on the 2015 edition. Pinnick had played down on the resignation calls, describing them as unnecessary.
