Why Keshi must not continue: A Citizen's Report Card On Coach Keshi(a must read) by nickxtra(m): 8:51am On Oct 04, 2014
If we could recall, when Keshi won the African Nations Cup as a Coach with the Super Eagles, his ego and apparent sense of a high class coach rose, to the extent that he began to run his mouth, talking carelessly, taking on any body who comes his way, including the NFF and players. Not done yet, Keshi even almost got emeshed in a racial row when he said African black Coaches are better than the white dudes who are only interested in making monies from Africa and not for the interest of the game. Back home in Nigeria, Keshi was loved and adored by majority of Nigerians and some foreign countries as a result of his feat (Nations Cup trophy) with the Super Eagles. Then it seemed Keshi became over pampered - pride and arrogance crept into Keshi's life that Keshi was threatening Nigerians that he was no longer interested in coaching the Super Eagles, as so many African Nations are wooing him, with better pay and terms to coach their National teams. Keshi sold this bait to NFF, Nigerians and even the presdent, that it took the effort of the President of Nigeria for Keshi to back down from 'abandoning' the Super Eagles to coach another national team( which was really never on card for him in the first place). Then again, immediately the Eagles qualified for the World Cup and even during the course of the World Cup hostilities, Keshi began to sing fresh songs that he would not coach Eagles after the World Cup, that African and non African countries need him to manage their National team, with better pay and terms. For instance, Keshi was so confident that he believed that the South African coaching job has been reserved for him to pick, when he returns from Brazil. At the world cup, we all saw how our Super Eagles played(at best, they got to the round of 16), but what most Nigerians did not know is that these foreign nations eager to contract Keshi as their coach, if there was any at all, saw the technical ability and/or inability of Keshi. So, all of a sudden the supposed other countries wanting to contract Keshi are no more there? Now, Keshi, who used to toss the NFF and Nigerians around, is now the one being tossed around by NFF and Nigerians. MY REPORTS CARD: As a citizen of Nigeria and a stakeholder in the affairs of Nigeria, I will say that Keshi does not have what he brags about. I thought by now, after these dribblings, coupled with the uncertainty surrounding the renewal of his contract, Keshi would have gone ahead to sign for the supposed African Nations. His fate as coach of the Super Eagles is actually uncertain and if I were coach Stephen Keshi, this is the time he should call the bluff and jump at the "numerous better offers" he has always been bragging about. What is he waiting for? May be until, he is disgraced out or are these offers no longer in the card for him? Some Nigerians like me have began to wonder why was he always threatneing Nigeria (a country that gave him the opportunity of winning the Nations cup and to coach at the world cup) with his bragging? This would have been the best time for him to leave, to allow a breathe of fresh air in the Super Eagles. Is he stranded, confused or he does not know his onions?
