The minister of sports, Dr Tammy Danagogo has followed a court injunction, and appointed Lawrence Longyir Katken as Acting Secretary General of the NFF.
A Plateau High Court sitting in Jos had on Wednesday July 2, 2014 granted an Order of Interlocutory Injunction restraining the president of the Nigeria Football Federation, Alhaji Aminu Maigari, and all connected with the body from running Nigerian football.
Appointment
A notice announcing the appointment of Katken was made available to Futaa.com by the Special Assistant on Media to the minister, Ehidiame Omorodion.
A part of the court order, handed down by Justice P.L Lot, which was included in the release, reads:
- That Interim Injunction is granted restraining the 2nd Defendant, Alhaji Aminu Maigari, and all other purported members of the Executive Committee and Congress of the 1st Defendant (NFF) from further Controlling, Commanding or Managing the Affairs of the 1st defendant and all Football matters in Nigeria pending the hearing, and determination of the Motion on Notice.
Injunction
- An Order of mandatory injunction is granted compelling the 4th Defendant (Minister of Sports) to appoint a senior members of the civil service in the 1st Defendant (NFF) to command, control and manage the Affairs of the said 1st Defendant and the Football matters in Nigeria pending the hearing and determination of the Motion on Notice in this matter.
And in a letter personally signed by the minister to Katken, he said,
- Further to Suit No. PLD/J 342/2014 and an order of mandatory injunction, issuing from Hon. Justice PL Lot,....you (Lawrence Katiken) are hereby directed to act as Secretary General of the NFF, and to take over the full management of the NFF.
- You are to hold this position pending the hearing and determination of the Motion on Notice in the referenced suit.
The Owner of Nembe FC, Mrs Ebiakpo Rumson Baribote (Plaintiff) had through her Counsel, S D Ekara, holding brief of T D Quidon Esq, filed a Suit No PLD/J 342/2014.
Restraining
In the suit, she asked the Court to grant an Order of Interim Injunction restraining the 2nd Defendant, (Alhaji Aminu Miagari) and all the Committee and congress of the 1st Defendant (the Nigeria Football Federation) from further controlling, commanding or managing the Affairs of the 1st Defendant and all Football matters in Nigeria.
This is pending the hearing and determination of the Motion on Notice for Interlocutory Injunction filed in this case.
Justice Lot therefore fixed July 11, 2014 for hearing on the Motion on Notice.

Re: Court sacks NFF, minister appoints Administrator
Not really. GEJ and Baribote not in the same camp. Baribote belongs to the APC in Bayelsa politics. He is seen as a Timi Silva's boy. I think this case has been lingering for some time.. Danagogo only following due process.

Also, beware of some Port Harcourt PDP-Abroad thugs on CE especially the youth leader, Uncle 1naira - you can report him to Uncle Cellular if he starts calling you madam or start cracking jokes about Dollar/Naira exchange rate .

Doubtful. FIFA knows that something is very wrong with African football and they can't turn a blind eye anymore, especially with their convenient "stance" on government intervention. Nigeria could easily argue that this is being due to the exact corruption that FIFA was embarrassed about last week.
Besides, FIFA won't do shite to Nigeria anyways. They are a little...distracted...right now.

Dust will settle by the time they do that. With a well crafted arguement from the government, FIFA will be too consumed the $$$$ they made at the WC to GAF.platinum wrote:Mek World Cup finish first. Once FIFA turn their eye face naija, we go see who remain standing then, this na initial gragra
