NFF Disciplinary Committee Upholds Giwa's Ban

The Disciplinary Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation has upheld the expulsion of Giwa FC from the Nigeria Professional Football League.

The NFF announced its decision in a communiqué on Monday after the sitting of the Committee in
Abuja. No Giwa FC official attended the sitting.

In its ruling, the Disciplinary Committee upheld the May 3, 2016 decision of the League Management Company to expel Giwa FC for failing to play matches involving Wikki Tourists, Akwa United and Enyimba.

The NFF has also fined the Jos Elephants a cumulative sum of 11,650,000 Naira as money owed the LMC and Enyimba for the club’s failure to participate in those matches.

Giwa FC has until 48 hours to appeal the decision.
