THERE has been so much speculation and guess work on the na­ture of Coach Sunday Oliseh’s illness that there are even insinua­tions that it could be the “handiwork of his en­emies”

Since he assumed of­fice as coach of the Su­per Eagles, the former Super Eagles star has­dnot spent quality time with the team due to an ailment that had seen him going in and out of hospital

On Sunday we report­ed that the coach who led the Eagles to a disas­trous outing in Rwanda did not come back with the team because of what close associates termed “fear for his life”

Today, Daily Sun­Sports can exclusively report that if Coach Oliseh was a player, he would not have been signed by Nigeria for “chronic injury” prob­lems.

A very authoritative source told us yester­day that the NFF did not investigate properly before signing Oliseh as he is “not fit”

“During the World Cup in Brazil, Oliseh was part of the techni­cal study group, yet he did not write down one sentence because he was reported ill while he was in Brazil.

His colleagues virtu­ally helped him to write his report.

“At one stage he was vomiting so much that we thought he will die. It was okay for us to ask him to take time out to treat himself while cov­er up for him.


“Am sure the NFF did not know he was not medically fit, if not they would not have gone for him, “our source insisted.

This exclusive rev­elation has put paid to insinuations by sympa­thizers who laid his ill­ness on the doorstep of “enemies” who want to eliminate him from the national team job.

With CHAN out of the way and the Na­tions Cup preliminar­ies in March, the NFF will need a fit Oliseh to take charge of the chal­lenging double header against Egypt.

If he's not capable of handling the position of a coach, he should have rejected the promising offer right from onset. Being a good player during his time doesn't necessarily suggest he's gonna perform wonderfully well on coaching side.

I thought before you get any job, you must go for your medical to check if you are fit for the task ahead. NFF needed a replacement of Keshi at all cost. IMO Keshi seems to know better than Oliseh. NFF the "confusionist"
