Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi has been urged not to try to stay in
the job after failing to qualify the team for the 2015 Africa Cup of
Nations.
Keshi is currently without a contract with the Nigeria Football
Federation.
And a top NFF official told BBC Sport: “Walking away honourably
would be the smartest thing for Stephen Keshi.
“It’s pointless to hang around when you’ve failed, have been
completely rejected by the NFF and are unwanted by disappointed
football fans.”
Keshi endured a turbulent time during the qualification campaign, in
which he was sacked by the NFF and only reinstalled after intervention
from the presidency.
And the intensity of speculation about his future increased following
Nigeria’s 2-2 draw with South Africa in Uyo last week that meant they
will not play at next year’s continental finals in Equatorial Guinea.
Nigeria had gone into the that match knowing a win would earn their
place at the tournament, their failure to do so has left NFF president
Amaju Pinnick refusing to name who he believes is “the ideal man to
lead the team from the present dark to sunshine”.
Keshi himself has refused to comment on whether it is the end of his
time as coach with t.he team he steered to Nations Cup glory in 2013
and led to the last-16 of this summer’s World Cup in Brazil.
But the NFF official added: “He does not have any contractual
obligations with the federation; remember the board also offered to
sponsor him and his assistants to managerial courses with good
intention.
“He will probably get a job elsewhere before January but the country
will not get the opportunity to play at the next Nations Cup.”

I dey laugh o! See coach weh big pass country, and its because of that slowpoke GEJ. How can a president with a working brain impose a coach 80% of Nigerians do not want on us, and you want to win in 2015 with this ur act of impunity. I pity Amaju Pinnick that day, the man jst dey look like a rejected soul, but I would never blame him or Keshi but GEJ.

i tink keshi and buhari has one tin in common "they dont accept failure and they dont back out"

can u please stop all this blaming GEJ game?
its was pointless to fire him wen we still a had a match to play & his supposed successor (amodu) would have been worse
GEJ being a considerate man gave him a life line but he blew it

If Amodu had come in and qualify the team, Keshi would be like, 'he is riding on my hard work and team'. It was good that the President gave him the final opportunity to prove himself once and for all, and he failed woefully. Shame

If you guys won't bring smone better than keshi in all round please let keshi stay please.

U are begging him to go abi??
