Paynesville – The Paynesville Magisterial Court has dismissed a criminal lawsuit involving Mustapha Raji, President of the Liberia Football Association (LFA), and Jubilee FC President James Nimene, citing a lack of sufficient evidence to proceed. In a statement issued Tuesday, the LFA welcomed the ruling, noting that it respects the integrity of the legal process. “The outcome reflects the conclusion reached by the court after due consideration of the facts presented,” the LFA stated in an official release. The LFA clarified that President Raji remained fully compliant with all legal requirements and was represented by competent counsel. Despite the legal distractions and the lingering dispute with Jubilee FC, the Association emphasized that its leadership remains focused on its mandate of developing football across Liberia.
