Department of State Services (DSS) Operatives have ejected Chris Giwa from the secretariat of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).
Giwa along with staff members who occupied the NFF secretariat on July 2 have been asked to vacate the premises immediately.
World football governing body, FIFA, had threatened to ban Nigeria if the situation was not resolved and Amaju Pinnick reinstated as NFF president.
The DSS operatives, who carried out the ejection exercise on Monday, said they were working on instructions from above.
A few hours after the exercise, Muhammed Sanusi, secretary-general of the NFF, was led to his office by the DSS operatives.
Sanusi has since resumed his duties as head of the football federation secretariat in Nigeria.
The president’s office was also cleared in readiness for the resumption of Pinnick who will return to Nigeria on Tuesday.
Pinnick had been away supervising the CAF roundtable symposium on Africa’s performance at the recently-concluded 2018 Russia World Cup.
