We made no mistake in re-appointing Keshi as Super Eagles’ Head Coach – NFF

The President of the Nigerian Football Federation, NFF, Amaju Pinnick has maintained that the Federation made no mistake in re-appointing Stephen Keshi as Super Eagles’ Head Coach.Speaking on the BBC’s Focus on Africa programme, Pinnick was categorical that Stephen Keshi with enhanced capacity, working together with a Technical Study Group headed by former Nigeria captain Jay –Jay Okocha and with the benefit of the world –renowned ProZone match preparation software would, in aggregate, be better than any foreign coach.




“We made no mistake in re-appointing Keshi. In his first term, Keshi did a lot to encourage the boys in the domestic League, and the boy who scored our winning goal at the Africa Cup of Nations, Sunday Mba, was playing in the domestic scene.“We don’t live in the clouds. If we wanted a foreign coach, we would probably go for someone in the class of Jose Mourinho or Arsene Wenger. We don’t have that money presently and we don’t want to be owing our coach,” he said.
