Today the appeals committee for the 2019 FCT Football Association elections threw out a petition by Musa Talle against the election of Adam Mouktar Mohammed as the new chairman of the football association.
Is There A Plot To Unseat Mouktar Mohammed?
The appeals committee headed by Agbolade Dokunmu Madoks ruled that the petition that Mouktar Mohammed was also a players’ intermediary lacked merit as the appellant failed to provide any evidence to that effect.
“Mr Abba M. Mohammed has been cleared of all allegations before us based on the evidences before us and we therefore dismiss all appeals against the elction of Mohammed Abba Muktar as the duly elected chairman of FCT FA and declare him duly elected,” read part of the statement signed by all three members of the appeals committee.
Last week, Mouktar Mohammed swept past incumbent Talle 11-4 to emerge as the new football boss of the Federal Capital Territory.
Before now there were questions over the integrity of the appeals committee headed by Dokunmu Madoks with Omeiza Suleiman as secretary and Chief Michah Gora as member.
A stakeholder told SCORENigeria they have proved that despite pressures and promises of overseas trips by the some top-ranking NFF officials they stood on the side of justice.
“Justice delayed s justice denied. The committee has done what it is expected to do before man and God,” he said.
