NFF crisis: Our battle for President is like Nollywood film – Giwa

Chris Giwa, the embattled president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), has said truth will prevail between him and Amaju Pinnick, on who ought to be the president of NFF.

Recall that Giwa was ejected from the Glass House by the Department of State Service, DSS, on Monday.

Giwa told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Abuja that no amount of intimidation would make him give up his mandate to be the NFF president.

“By the grace of God, we employed patience to go through the judicial system of the land as guaranteed by Article 1.1 of the NFF Statute to reach where we are.

“Except if the law and the judiciary is no more significant can what happened on Monday be allowed. Evil will not thrive over good.

“I urge our friends, allies and supporters to remain calm. Truth shall return to the centre stage in a couple of hours.

“What you have seen is like the different scenes in a Nollywood film. All I know is that the rule of law will not lie low against the rule of might and influence peddling,’’ he said.
