The disciplinary committee of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has started on a bad note in what seems like an assigned assignment in their changing of the decision of three points deduction from Remo Stars and Wikki Tourists, with unsubstantiated fact and twisting of English in reasons forwarded to give back three points to Wikki Tourists and Remo Stars.
I am highly disappointed in their first assignment,i t means we can’t trust them.
In the case of Wikki, how can match officials who claimed they were attacked now come up with a different story of not being attacked in front of the NFF disciplinary committee.
We have seen cases in the past where referees will be beaten, but after money exchanges hands, they will deny being beaten.
In the case of Remo Stars, assault was the reason why three points was deducted, common threat is an assault, the disciplinary committee agreed that Honourable Ekene Abubakar Adams tapped a referee on the chest, but did not beat the referee. Is tapping on the chest not an assault? They want to see more referees being tapped on the chest?
Stakeholders should rise and not allow these shady characters of the disciplinary committee.
We want a better organized Nigerian league.
