Keshi still on news tussling with NFF executives

Keshi and Amagu

 Officials of the Nigeria Football Federation are perpetuating a feud whether Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi, whose contract with the team has ended, deserves a new contract, with a majority still seriously opposed to this.


It has exclusively been gathered that a section of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) leadership want Keshi to be given a new contract despite failing to qualify Nigeria to the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations so as to, at least, keep their plum jobs.

A top source informed that the group that favours a new contract for the failed coach believes Keshi’s “very powerful friends” will finally accept them if they give him a new deal.

However, this group is opposed by a majority on the NFF executive committee who has stuck to a unanimous decision in October to sack Keshi.

It will be recalled that the NFF fired the coach only to later be forced to rescind this decision on the orders of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Most recently several top coaches including Shuaibu Amodu, Christian Chukwu and Adegboye Onigbinde have asked Keshi to walk away from the job because he has failed.
