HUGE RELIEF FOR NFF CHIEFTAINS AFTER COURT ACQUITTAL

The NFF helmsmen were in their numbers at the court hearing of the fraud allegations brought against them.

Tension may have built ahead of the pronouncements of Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu, but expectedly, it was smiles all the way after the judge dismissed the entire case.

All 16 charges were dismissed as Justice Ojukwu acquitted the NFF chieftains in consideration of the submission of the defence and the prosecution and in line with the rules of administration of criminal justice.

The NFF President Pinnick, and four others were discharged, acquitted on alleged $8.4million, N4billion corruption charges.
