FIFA has warned Nigeria about possible suspension after a regional court ordered the sacking of the country’s football association and the appointment of a new administrator to run the game in the populous west African nation. Nigeria’s government has been set a deadline of Tuesday to restore the leadership of the Nigerian Football Federation to their position or the country could be suspended from playing in international competitions. “FIFA has learnt from various sources that the Nigerian Football Federation has been served with court processes and that consequently an order restraining the President of the NFF, his Executive Committee members and the NFF Congress from running the affairs of Nigerian football has been granted by a High Court of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” said a FIFA statement.
