Has The NFF Finally Gotten Rid Of Keshi? by salterswan: 9:21am On Jun 22, 2015
Confusion has set in as yet another chain of tumultuous events has played out with Nigerian football Federation, NFF, and the Super Eagles coach Stephen Okechukwu Keshi.

Keshi has only enjoyed a “forced” peace with the NFF from the inception of his second reign as the Eagles handler and doubts remain over his happiness at the job.

There seems to be a strained relationship between him and his employers.

Recently crisis was temporarily resolved after Keshi stayed several months without a job, and the Eagles without a proper coach leaving Nigerian football to suffer awkwardly.

This almost forced Keshi to rule himself out of a return as Nigeria coach, after losing patience with the Glass House having run out of his initial contract on June 30 2014 without a renewal and agreement.

Now the Amaju Pinnick-led NFF has seized the freedom of the coach from selecting his choice of players, imposing a Technical Director, Amodu Shaibu and the technical study group to supervise his functions.

According to the NFF President, “Keshi will still have his input (in the team). The only people who are not really working well now are the technical study group because it is a process. He doesn’t have the liberty anymore to say he wants to bring in players from places.

“We must look at all the players (he invites from now on) and it must go through the technical department and Amodu will certainly make a comment.
“And like I told him, Shuaibu Amodu, if anything happens we are not going to hold Keshi responsible but we are going to hold you responsible because you are a part of it. And we made him to understand that and he said ‘yes sir.’

“So if you say you want to be Keshi’s friend – we are not fighting anybody – or you want to compromise but you are the technical director and we are going to hold you responsible. And he said ‘yes.’ So he is very strong and is not just a passing technical director.”

This development is however followed by several reactions as many think it’s a way of pushing Keshi out of the job, with some claiming the development is not being practiced in any part of the world.

Hmmmm controversy seems to be following this guy nowadays, well it does not look feasible to have the technical group inviting players it will be counter productive in the long run
