Detained NFF president Aminu Maigari has finally regained his freedom
along with fellow executive committee member Chris Green. He was
released yesterday
a day after he was arrested on Aug 26th.
“Maigari has been released by the security operatives. He was
released in the morning from the special anti-robbery squad after he was
handed to them by the Directorate of State Security Service. No charges were pressed against him,
neither was he or Green questioned on anything. It was clearly to
prevent them from attending the general assembly of Tuesday, which FIFA
insisted be presided by Maigari.”” said an
aide of the NFF boss.
Maigari, it was further
learnt, was detained on orders of controversial former Rivers State
police commissioner Joseph Mbu, who is now an assistant Inspector
General of police. World football governing body FIFA is expected to
soon rule on the unfolding drama in Nigeria...
