A Federal High Court in Abuja has discharged top executives of the Nigeria Football Federation from corruption charges brought by the defunct-Special Presidential Investigation Panel (SPIP).
The cleared executives include NFF president Amaju Pinnick, Seyi Akinwunmi (first vice president), Shehu Dikko (second vice president), Mohammed Sanusi (general secretary) and Ahmed Yusuf (executive committee member).
A few months ago, a 16-count charge was levelled against the quintet for alleged corruption and misappropriation of funds.
