FIFA suspend Ethiopian federation
World football governing body, FIFA has announced the suspension of the Ethiopian Football Federation, EFF due to non-compliance to the of the EFF with the roadmap agreed in February this year by FIFA, CAF and the EFF in order to normalise the situation of the federation. The decision to suspend the EFF from all FIFA programme until full compliance with the February 2008 agreement was taken at a FIFA Emergency Committee Tuesday in Zurich.
One of the main points established by the roadmap was the organisation of an extraordinary general assembly to deal with the motion of dismissal. In addition, the EFF offices were to be handed over to the recognised leadership of the association. Despite several reminders sent by FIFA in recent months, none of the steps established in the roadmap have been taken.
The suspension of the EFF and the consequences provided for in article 14, paragraph 3 of the FIFA Statutes come into force Tuesday, the day on which the federation has been officially notified of its suspension.
