Stephen Keshi has been sacked as Nigeria coach.
And in his place, former Super Eagles coach, Amodu Shuaibu is to lead a consortium of coaches for the final two games of the 2015 African Nations Cup qualifier. ColinUdoh reports that an expatriate coach will thereafter be appointed to take charge of the squad. The Nigeria Football Federation had released a communique wee hours of Thursday after a meeting of the NFF Board 'in the interest of Nigerian football and the desire to ensure qualification for the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations finals'. Keshi's two-year contract with the NFF lapsed in June, and the former national team captain has been working in a caretaker capacity since then. His technical and backroom staff were also fired along with him. In their place, Salisu Yusuf, Gbenga Ogunbote and Alloy Agu will join Amodu for the final two games of the qualifying series. Garba Lawal replaces Emmanuel Attah as new Team Coordinator, Toyin Ibitoye replaces Ben Alaiya as Media Officer, while Godfirst Chike will be the new equipment manager in place of Chidi Ngoka. Only Team Secretary Dayo Enebi retained his position. - See more at: http://www.lailasblog.com/2014/10/super-eagles-coach-stephen-keshi-sacked.html#sthash.Cev6dPTE.dpuf
