FIFA Threatens To Ban Nigeria Again Over NFF Elections




The world football governing body, FIFA, has set a September 8 deadline for Nigeria for the country’s football administration to work according to set down statutes or be suspended from international football.
A FIFA letter sent to the Nigeria Football Federation on Wednesday read in part, “Following the decision by the FIFA Emergency Committee, FIFA has today, 3rd September 2014, sent a letter to the Nigeria Football Federation confirming that the NFF will be suspended with immediate effect should there still be persons claiming to have been elected to NFF positions on 26 August 2014
and occupying their offices on Monday, 8 September 2014 at 08.00 (Central European Time).
“The decision follows events linked to the NFF general assembly held on 26 August 2014. While the said general assembly was duly convened by the NFF Executive Committee to adopt a new roadmap leading to the NFF elections, some members proceeded to hold elections in the absence of the NFF President, who was being held by security forces for questioning.
“In a letter sent on 29 August 2014, FIFA confirmed that it would not recognise the results of the aforementioned elections and that the matter would be brought to the respective FIFA bodies should there still be persons claiming to have been elected and occupying the NFF offices at midnight on 1 September 2014. On expiry of the deadline, some people were still claiming to have been elected and were occupying the NFF premises.”

Benjamin was an attractive wealthy male, who caught my fancy right from the first day i packed into the new lodge{hostel}. Unlike most guys, he kept to himself and behaved like a saint, winning my heart with his godly behaviour. But getting him to reciprocate my good gestures towards him was a very hard task. His intense behaviour soon began irritating me, forcing me to make up my mind not to visit him again

BETRAYAL Episode 17

BETRAYAL Episode 17 He crossed his leg as he stared at me with a confident smile, while i sat on my plastic chair and faced him with a drawn face. Even though i was scared, i never showed it “are you not happy that i came to your room?” i heard him ask, while i shook my head and forced out a smile, “i’m not feeling fine, and i was even about to sleep before you knocked” i replied…….. “but i just saw you coming out from benjamin’s room minutes ago?” he asked knowingly. I just kept quiet and held my jaw with both hands, “but on a serious note why is a pretty girl like you, always hanging out with someone with no *swag*?” he asked with a serious look on his face. I breathed deeply as i stared into his eyes with disgust, “i like boys with no swag” i replied, in a manner which would even make a brave ‘jew student’ raise his eye brow in fear, but i cared not, because i really didn’t like even the air he breathed……. “baby are we quarreling nah? Please i’m also your friend” he said calmly,
