Adokiye Amiesimaka who claimed Golden Eaglets captain Fortune Chukwudi is over aged and therefore is not eligible to play as an U-17 player in the ongoing FIFA organised tournament taking place in Nigeria has revealed he has documentary evidence to back up his allegation. He also hit back at the NFF for questioning his motives in calling out the player.

Writing again in his weekly column, Adokiye stated: "In all humility, as a legal practitioner with over 30 years post-call experience and a man priviledged to have been the Hon Attorney-General and Commissioner of Justice of a state, I will not speak about such a matter in the public domain without being sure of my facts. And there is documentary evidence kept in a secured place attesting to what I have said about him."

Adokiye also accused the NFF of complicity in the age fraud. "If our sports authorities had any sense of responsibility or appreciated the seriousness of the matter and were not party to this fraud, instead of running from one media house to another disrespectfully calling me names, what they should have done was to immediately cause an independent body to investigate it. From available evidence, it would not have taken more than a few minutes to determine the truth." He added that Chukwudi was not the only ineligible player in the team.

"Again, he is not the only ineligible player in the team. And that is why I can boldly say that the MRI scan ... is a scam, at least to the extent of the thorough screening of the host team. Of course, other teams should be tested too, but what concerns me is the integrity of our team." For those questioning his timing, Amiesimaka had this to say: "I could not have talked seriously about this player or any of the others earlier because the sports authorities did not give us the opportunity to see them play any major friendly matches before the tournament began.

And you do not make a serious allegation without seeing the players whose names you have only read in the newspaper. Who does not know that as some of the players falsify their ages, so too do they adopt names other than their own?"
