Giwa has always claimed that the September, 2014 election which put current president of the NFF Amaju Pinnick in office was faulty but his case has been ruled out by FIFA and the Court of Arbitration for Sports.

A wrong court order sacked Pinnick as NFF boss and ruled Giwa as president. Although that order has been faulted, Giwa has insisted that he is the president of the NFF and has tried forcing himself into office.

Four others (Muazu Suleyman, Yahaya Adama, Sani Fema and Johnson Effiong) were also banned while his football club Giwa FC has been ordered to pay N3.9m in total for offences committed against the League Management Company and breach of NFF rules.

Giwa and the four others are found guilty of Illegally representing the NFF in breach of Art. 40 of the NFF Statutes, when they without due authorization and mandate purported.

Giwa FC were fined for missing a Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) clash against Enugu Rangers in Match Day 12.

The club shall pay a fine of N2m the LMC, N650,000 to offset the expenses of the match officials and N1m to offset the expenses incurred by Rangers International FC.

In a match day 14 fixtured, Giwa FC abandoned the clash at the 74th minute and the NFF  has revealed that goals so far recorded (0-1) shall be the final score for the match.

Giwa was also found guilty of breach of the general rules of conduct as contained in Art. 13 of the FIFA Code of Ethics when he invaded the premises of the Nigeria Football Federation and falsely presented himself as President of the NFF on Friday, May 6.

As response to the ban, Giwa had banned FIFA-recognised NFF boss Pinnick and his board for seven years.
