Keshi Reacts To His Dismissal As Super Eagles' Coach.
It is about time for me to move on, my dear. This is not the end of the world for me,” Keshi told Premium Times moments after he was dismissed as the coach of the Eagles.
It would be recalled that the former Togo and Mali coach was booed by
football fan when he stepped into the national stadium in Abuja during
Nigeria versus Sudan 2015 Nations Cup qualifier on Wednesday.
The match ended 3-1 in favour of the Super Eagles.
Keshi, who took the Super Eagles job four years ago, won the 2013
African Cup of Nations, AFCON, in South Africa and led the team to the
2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2014 Confederations Cup, both held in
Brazil.
However, the Nigerian senior team has been struggling to qualify for
the 2015 AFCON having suffered two defeats against Congo and Sudan.
Keshi has been criticised for the calibre of players he has been
inviting for national assignment especially those he selected for the
2014 World Cup.
Meanwhile, former Keshi assistants, Daniel Amokachi and Ike
Shorounmu, are expected to proceed for a coaching course, fully funded
by the NFF in any country of their choice.
