Excos of NFF has decided to renew its contract with Stephen Keshi, the Chief Coach of the Super Eagles.
This decision was taken after the impeachment of the NFF President, Alhaji Aminu Maigari took place in Abuja yesterday.
In a statement signed by Chief Emeka Inyama says “the Executive Committee has mandated the technical subcommittee to open channels of communication with Keshi with a view to extending his contract, as the NFF is still interested in working with him.
The sub-committee is to report back to the Executive Committee within a week.” “The Committee mandated the NFF management to proceed with discussions with a number of African countries with the view to seeing the Super Eagles playing a friendly match on FIFA window of Wednesday, 13 August, as part of preparations for the 2015 African Cup of Nations qualifying matches.
” Meanwhile, an Emergency Congress of the NFF will be convened in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja on Thursday, 31 July, to ratify the impeachment of Maigari from the NFF Executive Committee.
“Henceforth, all financial issues with players and officials must be thoroughly deliberated upon and agreed ahead of major matches and competitions, to avoid the kind of embarrassment brought upon the nation at the 2014 FIFA World Cup finals in Brazil, when players boycotted training sessions before the Round of 16 match against France,” the communiqué read.
