The court of Appeal panel led by Justice Barika together with Justices Okon Abang and Justice Banjoko this afternoon 19th January 2024 at 12:30pm sacked the entire NFF Board by setting aside and striking out all dubious orders obtained by the board on the 29th of September 2022 to conduct the purported NFF illegal election of September 30th in Benin City.                                  

The court struck out all processes concerning the NFF appeal and further ordered that the processes be deleted from all systems of the court forthwith.     Parties in the matter were represented by the following counsels-NFF Chief Okutepa SAN represented by Peace Omiri and Barrister Arnold from his chambers. While PFAN TASK FORCE- was represented by Dr.Celsus Ukpong, Chief Rumson Baribote and Mary Waribo.                                   
 In the light of the above any sacked NFF Board member parading itself after the ongoing AFCON in Ivory Coast would be risking criminal contempt proceedings. Details later.
