Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has been paid part
of his outstanding salaries, NFF Media director
Ademola Olajire says.
The Nigeria coach has not been paid for the last seven
months, and the revelation sparked outrage last
month.
But Olajire says that is being rectified. "The coach has been paid part of his outstanding
salary, and the Federation is working hard to pay him
the rest as soon as it is possible to do so," Olajire told KickOffNigeria.com, but declined to say exactly what that 'part' constitutes. However, another top official of the Federation, who
did not want his name mentioned as he is not
authorized to speak on the matter, told KickOffNigeria.com that what was paid to Keshi was two months wages. "We have paid him two months salaries, and we hope
to clear the rest before the end of the year."But Olajire says that is being rectified. "The coach has been paid part of his outstanding
