The General Secretary of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Musa Amadu has denied claims that he has been ‘forging’ FIFA letters to suit certain purposes and has asked to be sued if it can be proven that has been involved in forgery.
Several FIFA letters have been received by the Nigeria Football Federation over the last six month since the current NFF crises began, and there have been insinuations in some quarters that some of those letters may have been forged to suit certain agenda, with Amadu primarily fingered as the culprit.
The scribe who is a lawyer, he said that if the allegations can be proven, then he should be taken to court for forgery.
“If Musa Amadu is manufacturing letters from FIFA, that is a criminal offence, a forgery and people should take Musa Amadu to court. You know it is a criminal offence. He who alleges, must prove and if somebody says Musa Amadu forges letters from FIFA, he should provide the evidence to the police, so that they can prosecute Musa Amadu for a criminal offence,” Amadu said unequivocally.
The latest FIFA letter, which apparently recognized the controversial ‘majority report’ that dismissed all petitions against the conduct of the September 30 NFF elections and upheld the elections of Amaju Pinnick and his board members has since caused more controversy, with insinuations that the letter was ‘manufactured’ by the NFF to suit their agenda.
