The Federation of International Football Federations has lifted the suspension it placed on Nigeria after the necessary steps taken from by the concerned authorities to avert the hammer.
FIFA on Friday declared that it had taken into recognition the withdrawal of the court case which restrained the elected board from functioning in their respective offices.
It also confirmed the reinstatement of Aminu Maigari and his board and by its statutes, Nigeria will no longer be suspended and thus is readmitted into the football community.
A FIFA statement read: "FIFA has today, 18 July 2014, lifted the suspension that was imposed on the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) on 9 July 2014 on account of interference.
"FIFA has noted that the court proceedings and order preventing the president of the NFF, the NFF Executive Committee members and the NFF Congress from running the affairs of Nigerian football that prompted the suspension have been withdrawn.
"As statutory order has been reinstated at the NFF and the legitimate bodies reinstalled, FIFA has decided to lift the suspension as of today, Friday 18 July 2014.''
Impending disqualifications of the Super Falcons will no longer exist as they will now be drawn into group.
All other statutes of the international body are hereby fulfilled and Nigeria restored.
