Emmanuel Attah, FA chairman of Nigeria's Federal Capital Territory, has been fired according to KickOffNigeria.com.
Attah is one of a score of NFF officials in court for contempt. A letter, signed by the Acting Secretary General of the Federation, instructed Attah to stand down pending the outcome of the lawsuit.
The FCT FA chairman becomes the second high profile administrative casualty of the court proceedings, which followed the NFF elections in August.
Musa Amadu was also asked to stand down as Acting Secretary General, less than three weeks after being asked to oversee affairs at the NFF following the nullification of the elections.
The case resumes at the Lagos High Court on Monday. Nigeria are set to play an African Nations Cup qualifier against Guinea on October 10.
