The
Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has ruled out hiring a foreign
technical adviser to superintend the current Super Eagles bench led by
coach Stephen Keshi, saying it is a distraction that should be avoided
outright for now.
Speaking to sportwriters at the Glasshouse on Thursday, the first vice-president of the NFF, Chief Mike Umeh said the results being chalked up by the current technical crew of the Eagles are enough for any forthright person to look away from such issue. “Why would anybody be thinking of such for now, especially now that Keshi and his team are giving us result? To us at the board level it is a distraction that we will not allow anybody, no matter how highly placed, to impose on us.”
The one-time team manager of the Green Eagles posited that what the current national teams were enacting was revolutionary.”
“There’s a revolution now in Nigeria football and this is evident from results from the Eaglets, the women national teams and lately, the Super Eagles, especially if you saw what our boys did with the mighty Italians in London.”
He also noted that the Super Eagles were the first African country to pick a ticket to the 2014 World Cup and “moreso, without the usual Presidential Task Force, like what happened in the past.”
