Amos Adamu was Director General of the Nigerian National Sports Commission for ten years before being redeployed in November 2008. Before his appointment as Director General, Adamu was the Director of Sports of the ministry for 10 years.
Adamu 62-year-old, was a member of FIFA’S executive committee for four years until 2010, when he was banned.
