Nigerian Football Federation president Amaju Pinnick has vowed not to employ a foreign coach to take charge of the Super Eagles again after Sunday Oliseh's handling of the job and resignation on social media while he was away at Zurich for FIFA's elections.

Amaju, who christened Sunday Oliseh 'Africa's Pep Guardiola' upon his appointment last year says the era of giving indigenious coaches a chance to head the Super Eagles is over, saying Samson Siasia will take over the team temporarily while the NFF look for the perfect 'foreign' replacement.


“After this Sunday Oliseh debacle, we have definitely turned the corner. We are now going to start shopping for a well grounded and qualified foreign coach to tinker the Team. Enough is enough. What we have learnt is that there is a world of difference between being a good coach and being a good manager”, he said.

While announcing his resignation on Twitter, Oliseh said “Due to contract violations, lack of support, unpaid wages, benefits to my players, assistant coaches and myself, I resign as Super Eagles chief coach. I feel fortunate, blessed and eternally grateful for having had the honour to play, captain and coach this great nation of ours, Nigeria.”

But according to reports the NFF are planning legal action against Oliseh citing he broke contractual obligations after he resigned without giving a month's notice plus in his contract he was told to live in Nigeria and given rent but refused to live here to perform his coaching duties.

Better

its better , i hate Nigerian coaches handling the super eagles.

Better. I hate nigerian coaches. They know nothing. My candidates for the job are Jurgen Klinsmann, Guus Hiddink or Louis Vak Gaal.

Nigerian coaches wants a share of the national cake through NFF, foreign coaches don't think that way. so I guess we should protect our investments. chop alone and die alone

The day NFF stops playing politics with Nigeria's football is the day eagles(super,flying,eaglets) will start moving forward..

That is how Sunday Oliseh would be the name that ensured Nigerian coaches are not given the opportunity to coach Nigerian team.

And now if one talks about local content and indigenous football coaching development some buffons will be defending the NFF! THIS is not part of buy naija grow naira! Scam APC

NFF is full of novice. they are confused. they don't even know what they want again.

bring foreign coach today and tomorrow criticism will start.

Welcome development. At least for now.



But, is Ben Bruce aware of this? NFF remember our #buynaijatogrownaija campaign.

National moi-moi

I'm after trophy

Fg should remember buy naija save naira

Keshi won a continental title.

All of these useless foreign coaches never win anything.

Vanity Upon Vanity...

.. I agree totally ..

In fact, "no more home based PRESIDENT for Nigeria

Van Gaal will soon be available.

At least he won't start by denying he's not Igbo.

Okay, after na jay jay and papilo we go see. Rotation remains. All da best 9ja

I can't imagine a brohaha of this calibre. Now our scarce resources would be stationed away from Nigeria and listified to the foreign world. Its cantercaross.
The cardiac clover in which oliseh left the job in dismay isn't anything to write home about, but we shall scape this era of blamblam.



Anyways...

Yep...the last one was a big mumu.

NFF should not hire foreign coach. No no no. Siasia, Amunike, and manu garba are great coaches.

It's NFF that needs to take care of its own responsibility, and have attitudinal change.

Up next, we will see a washed up 'foreign coach'- Ignorance of NFF. Even a Ghanaian is a foreign coach.

Nonsense NFF. Let me see them owing foreign coaches.
We are talking of paying them in dollars which will heigten the woes of Nigeria.

i hate nff. Is as if they are the ones coaching

Immature and impulsive NFF Boss and IMMATURE AND IMPULSIVE EX COACH. Match made in heaven. Thought he was the Guadiola of Africa. Bet he meant Moyes. Shout out to Man United! winks**

Make una go employ Sampaoli or klinsman[img][/img]

At least until we get our acts right. But it's really embarrassing that as a footballing nation, we are yet to get it right as per improving our lot in the footballing world. Our problem does not like with local or foreign coaches/managers. It's the interference with the decisions of the manager/coach and the ego of these coaches NFF employs.

It happened with Westerhorf and Bonfere Jo. NFF should desist from selecting players for the team.

I tire for our NFF matter.
