Amos Adamu's 3 year Football Ban Ends


BBC sports has reported that the 3 year ban from football places on Nigeria's former FIFA executive committee member Amos Adamu has ended.
He was sanctioned for bribery after being filmed asking undercover reporters for $800,000 and was not allowed to take part in the 2010 votes.

The bribery scandal three years ago implicated Adamu and five other officials in corrupt behaviour and plunged Fifa into turmoil weeks before the votes which saw Russia chosen to the 2018 World Cup and Qatar selected as the host for the 2022 event.

Adamu, who is free to work in football again after the ban ended on Sunday, said: "I can only thank God it is over.
I hold no grudge against anyone
