What Happened To Delta FA Elections? FIFA Asked Pinnick-Led NFF

Posted on December 3, 2020

Following the petition to FIFA on the intransigence and unwholesome interference by Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) on the elections of one of its affiliates in Nigeria, Delta State Football Association (DFAJ won by Edema Fuludu as Chairman and Victor Ikpeba as Vice chairman respectively where the NFF later came out with an aberration called Normalization Committee to conduct another election that brought a factional Delta State Football Association, there are strong indications that FIFA has written the NFF questioning its alleged interference.


Following this directive, the NFF is said to be preparing a defence of a supposed suspension given to the chairman Edema Fuludu while he was Acting Chairman. The facts are in the public domain. If he was suspended: why were they begging him to allow Tony Okowa become the DFA Chairman? Why were they making offers of various appointments to him to take up vice chairman role? Why did they decide to come up with the Delta North Senatorial District turn mantra of rotational FA chairmanship? Why did they create a crisis where there was none to set up a Normalization Committee? Why did they start and stop the formal set up of Arbitration as requested by the South South FA Chairmen on non recognition of the FA as led by Edema Fuludu after the 13th July 2019 Elections?


Facts are sacrosanct. The lies they are planning as defence will not work.
Peace can never exist where injustice is barring it’s fangs.


We want peace and they refused to sit with us because they believe in political and money power.


Our football at developmental level can only thrive if imposition is nailed in a coffin.


The factional Delta State FA created from all indications is standing on the tripod of impunity, illegality and injustice.
