EFCC begins investigating NFF president Amaju Pinnick and the members of his executive - See more at: https://goo.gl/oHYSor

Apparently, James Peters sent them a petition alleging widespread corruption. Na wa!

Same script different cast.

[oloye]

Another pointless investigation that will be thrown out of the courts.

This EFCC is a joke. Has always been a political tool to harrass and silence political opponents.

Hopefully Pinnick has been above board.

I used to view NFF as completely morally corrupt and perverted until Pinnick took over and gave it a 21st century look.

It is still a morally perverted organisation, let is just say at least it appears Pinnick knows what he is doing and is in touch with the direction of the game unlike the other baboons whose sole desire is to pillage and prance around doing nothing.

Just tells you that they are wasting their time....they have a lot of tools hanging around the NFF that are ready to be used for a few dollars handout.

I will caution on preempting investigations like this because you cannot be sure on who is above board and who is not above board. However, it is important that investigations are not used for witch-hunting or to achieve other personal goals. Those accused should be given opportunities to fully defend themselves and let the chips fall where they may. Just my tuppence.

So where was this investigation all these while? These people are becoming too predictable and childish.

It's the same playbook they used to sideline and harass Aminu Maigari and company after the last World Cup.

Oloye,

True word. It is certainly connected with the fight for NFF leadership and scheming for control of the upcoming elections. However, if indeed there are fraudulent activities then there should be no time limitation as to fighting such activities.

Prof, I used to believe in the last part of your comments, I have supported all these shenanigans in the past believing these clowns were actually interested in fighting corruption, the truth is, it is not the corruption they are after, the ploy is nothing more than intimidation. If Pinnick steps down the witch hunt will stop and the corruption continues.

They are so fixated on doing a hatchet job such that their investigation cannot event go past initial trials in the court

Of all the fraudulent activity that Maigari and his people were accused of last time out, how much of it actually stuck and proved to be accurate? The reality is that we've seen this movie before.

An old and stale movie....that is why people no longer fear the EFCC, get yourself a good attorney ,head to the courts and rubbish them like many have done and turned the apparatus into some huge embarrassing joke. The only people still afraid of that orgnaist are those who have no access to a good attorney.

Dean, best believe that there's corruption in ALL institutions in Naijaria.

I did mention in the thread that we should expect an EFCC investigation.

Time for EFCC officials to extort money from Pinnick and co.

[ohenhen1]

It is like Deja vu. The same thing happened just after the 2014 WC. Ebe like Nigeria is stuck at a specific point in time. The clock is not moving.

But isnt it somebody that will raise a petition that EFCC by law are obliged to investigate?
Those people entitled to petition include you and I.

We are not in a position to pick and choose who we like EFCC to investigate and who we don't.
That's why the Nigerian habit of finger pointing is pointless (forgive the pun) if you are not ready to follow up and petition EFCC.

"This man is corrupt, that man is corrupt" - but its all with mouth.
The corrupt people know that its all mouth and very few people will bother to petition or even have any evidence.

Having said that, as much as I have come to admire Pinnick, he should not be immune to investigation

[Ekorian]

Naijas! Many have decided who is innocent and guilty because of past occurrences or preconceived notions. Should every lawsuit or accusation be discarded because of an appearance of bias? I bow for una...

Abi o. Very self serving and underhanded.

Even if this is politics, are you saying that if Pinnick stole $10m and the EFCC got a petition to that effect, they should not investigate it? They may investigate him and find him innocent but the reality is that the EFCC cannot be ignoring petitions.

Should we then say that because some armed robbery suspects were found to be innocent in the past, the police should no longer investigate complaints? We have known some women falsely accuse their ex-boyfriends of rape in Nigeria, so should the authorities now refuse to investigate any rape allegation because of this?

Come on now guys, please let us get real. I think Pinnick has done a great job with the NFF but that does not make him immune to investigation.

I also know how the NFF works. When they want to get rid of you, it is corruption that is used but still, we cannot because of all this abandon the fight against corruption.

I have not picked who and when.....I have only asked a question....it appears Nigerians love to be treated to same charade over and over.
