An FCT High Court, Maitama, on Tuesday fixed December 16 for the office of the Attorney General of the Federation to report on the harmonisation of the cases against some Nigeria Football Federation officials in the alleged misappropriation of 9.5 million dollars in FIFA grant.
EFCC dragged three officials of NFF before the court in the case of alleged misappropriation before applying on April 30 to join both Pinnick and Sanusi in the matter as co-defendants.

Musa prayed the court that in the interest of justice and to avoid abuse of court processes that time should be given to them to harmonise the cases.
