FIFA Suspends Adamu over Bribe-for-Vote Scam

Quote

Dr. Amos Adamu has temporarily been suspended by the world football governing body, FIFA, following a preliminary inquiry into allegations of corruption.

Also suspended is Reynald Temarii, a FIFA Vice-President and President of the Oceania Football Confederation (OCF).
Both men, who are members of the powerful 24-member FIFA Executive Committee, have been asked to “step aside” in order to allow for full and proper investigations into the damming allegations that they were ready to sell their bidding votes for personal financial gains.

The decision to suspend the men was taken yesterday after they had met with members of the Ethics Committee, which had been asked to investigate the allegations by FIFA President Sepp Blatter who said yesterday that he would fight devils in the football hierarchy.

FIFA should be ashamed that it is gradually loosing the credibility for which it has been known for long. This is because instead of sanitising the misdemeanour of its officers it has been so much engrossed in the habit of assuming the almighty posture running after nations who are trying to correct the anomaly of its football officials. FIFA is always ready to ban the whole world from football if any government is seen to be meddling in the affairs of football. This attitude has served as a protective shield for corrupt officials who always find solace in the statutes of FIFA to commit atrocities. Did FIFA not hear about those Nigerian NFF officials who booked substandard hotels for the Super Eagles during the preparation for the world cup in South Africa so as to pave way for stuffing their pockets? what did FIFA do when certain amount of money disappear from Nigerian Glass House of the NFF? Also when a lawcourt ordered that election into the NFF's executive offices should be put on hold the NFF went ahead to conduct the election in the presencxe of FIFA officials as if they were doing that in a FIFA territory. When Nigerian government attempted to make the NFF officials accountable for the money allocated to them FIFA termed it as interference. If FIFA has no will to monitor the waqy the money given to football associations are spent and if it can not provide all the running costs of such asasociations but depend like in the case of African
