Court Invalidates NFF Election Held In Warri.

A Federal High Court sitting in Jos has invalidated the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) election of September 30, 2014 held in Warri.

The NFF polls of September had brought into office Amaju Pinnick as president of the football federation succeeding Aminu Maigari.

But two members of the Chris Giwa group had gone to court to seek redress asking the court to stop the NFF congresses from holding.

Justice Ambrose Allagoa of the Federal High Court in Jos declared in his ruling on Thursday that “I have set aside all the proceedings and decisions of the Warri Extra Ordinary meeting of the 20th September and the Elective Congress of 30th September which were direct contravention of the orders of this court as granted on the 19th September.

“Nobody should foist on the court a complete case of hopelessness so that the principles of law and justice can be upheld. Its not enough to say that the order of court was wrongly made, no matter how unorthodox, its subsisting orders, unless set aside, remains law and must be respected.
