FIFA has banned Amos Adamu from all football-related activity.

An ethics committee at FIFA has been looking into allegations of breaches of its code of ethics since March last year.

The committee recommended a two-year ban and fine for Adamu, a former Fifa executive committee member who was banned for three years in 2010, the BBC reported.

A Fifa statement says Adamu, who was also once on the Confederation of African Football board, violated three articles - covering general rules of conduct, loyalty and conflict of interest - of its Code of Ethics.

The 62-year-old was a member of Fifa's executive committee for four years until 2010, when he was banned from all football activity for three years.

He was found guilty of asking for money in exchange for World Cup votes - an accusation he denied.
