[b]Nwosu sacked

Posted: 2009-04-23 20:47

Golden Eaglets coach Henry Nwosu has been given the boot by the Nigeria Football Federation.
Nwosu's position has been under threat since performing dismally at the Dubai Invitational tournament this month and the NFF Technical Committee, at their meeting in Abuja on Thursday, approved his dismissal.
The committee, headed by Taiwo Ogunjobi, met in Thursday in Abuja and recommended the replacement of the former Green Eagles captain.

A press statement by NFF spokesman Ademola Olajire after the meeting noted that "the U-17 team had been performing dismally and therefore recommends Nwosu’s replacement."
Nwosu's assistant, Monday Odigie has asked to take temporary charge of the team pending a substantive appointment.

Nigeria are defending Under-17 World champions, but under Alphonsus Dike, failed to qualify for the African championships, leading to Dike's dismissal. Nwosu was asked to take charge but has come under unrelenting criticism over his selection and tactics.
