Nigeria Football Federation Reacts To Resignation Of Unwanted Oliseh
Published: February 26, 2016
The Nigeria Football Federation, through its spokesperson Ademola Olajire, has reacted to the sudden resignation of Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh.
It is common knowledge that the relationship between the ex-Nigeria skipper and his employers are far from cordial, and Olajire confirmed as much , saying he was unwanted and would have been fired earlier this month if not for the intervention of the Sports Minister.
“Oliseh is gone and we have to move forward. As far as we are concerned, it is good riddance to bad rubbish. He is not the kind of person we thought he was,” Olajire told the Nigeria Television Authority on Friday morning.
“He went on YouTube to abuse Nigerians. The Minister pleaded with the Federation to allow him to remain in place for our next two matches. As you can see, he did not even wait for those matches.
“I cannot tell you what exactly they will do, but I can tell you that we will empanel a new set of technical hands for the team. And whatever Oliseh has mishandled in his few months in charge, they will have to right.”
The Nigeria Football Federation eggheads including Amaju Pinnick are presently in Zurich for a Fifa Congress and have been informed of the latest development.
