Reports have it that the civil suit at the Plateau State High Court in Jos which has created a lot of problems for Nigerian football could be withdrawn on Monday. The problems that have caused the Nigeria Football Federation to be suspended by Fifa could be resolved on Monday
This would enable the reinstatement of the Aminu Maigari-led board of the Nigeria Football Federation and then ensure Fifa lifts its suspension of the country from international football. “Mrs. [Ebiakpo] Baribote has agreed to withdraw the suit, but is asking for the 15-year ban on her husband to be lifted, and for him to be reinstated as second vice president of the NFF,” reports SL10.
“The suit will most likely be withdrawn on Monday, and Maigari and his board will be reinstated but that will not be the end. This move is only to comply with FIFA’s directive, and get the suspension lifted.” Fifa has given Nigeria until Tuesday July 15 to reinstate Maigari’s board or face the consequences of staying in international football wilderness for a long time.
