Amaju Pinnick

Human rights lawyer and counsel to the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF), has revealed that the NFF chairman, Amaju Pinnick, was not sacked by any court.

Keyamo described it as a legal impossibility, adding that Pinnick was not joined as a party in the suit.
Leadership Sports reports that Keyamo, in a statement said “We are the solicitors to the Nigerian Football Federation led by Amaju Pinnick and to the defendants in Suit No. FHC/J/CS/77/2016; between Yahaya Adama & Anor. V. Maigari & Ors.
“I wish to state here that neither Chris Giwa nor Amaju Pinnick are parties to the present suit in Jos. Now, if they were not parties to that suit, how could Giwa have been ordered to go take over as NFF president by the honourable court? It is pure falsehood and we are constrained to set the records straight, owing to the sensitive nature of football administration in Nigeria.”
He also said “The Supreme Court of Nigeria has held times without number that no court of law can issue an Order against a person that is not a party in a suit before a court without joining or hearing from that party and no court of law can also install a party in an office who is not before the court praying for such an order.
“The said Chris Giwa is not a party before the case at the Federal High Court and the court never made an order installing him as NFF President. It is like the bizarre case of the proxies of a loser in an election suing only INEC without joining the other victorious party in the case. How can a court of law or tribunal remove the victorious party from office without joining him or even making a positive order to that effect? It is simply a legal impossibility.
“What the so-called Chris Giwa is attempting to do is nothing but sheer brigandage and we shall be writing to all authorities concerned to arrest and prosecute him if he dares to take the laws into his hands.”
