A legal practitioner, Alhaji Ibrahim, also known as "Justice Castle," has written to the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC) requesting the outcome of its investigation into corruption allegations against past and serving members of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).
In a letter dated July 15, 2024, Ibrahim asked the ICPC to disclose the findings of its investigation, which was prompted by a petition filed by Tunde Aderibigbe in 2019. The petitioner alleged shady activities by some executive members of the NFF and its CEO.
The ICPC conducted a thorough investigation, but despite completing it and indicting some individuals, the commission has not taken further action. Ibrahim's letter requests an explanation for the lack of prosecution or, if no wrongdoing was found, clarification on the exoneration of those investigated.
This development comes after the NFF appeared before a national assembly oversight committee, claiming that the ICPC had cleared them of any financial misconduct. The lawyer's request seeks transparency and accountability in the investigation's outcome.
