The re-engaged coach of the Super Eagles, Stephen Keshi, has appealed to Nigerian football fans to forgive the technical crew and the team for failing to qualify for the last Nations Cup.
Speaking to Channels Television in Abuja, Mr Keshi said that his second coming as the Head Coach of the Super Eagles would witness a total turn around for the team and the development of Nigerian football.
He further appealed to football loving fans to support the Super Eagles at all times, promising an improvement in the performance of the team. The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) had extended the contract of embattled Super Eagles Chief Coach, Stephen Keshi, putting an end to months of indecision. Keshi will now lead the former African champions till 2017 after agreeing a two-year deal with the federation.
Reports say Keshi will earn 5 million naira monthly and also work with the NFF Technical Director and the NFF Technical Study Group under the new conditions. This is coming ahead of the qualifiers for the 2017 African Cup of Nations where Nigeria is pitched in group G along with 7-time African champions, Egypt, Tanzania and Chad. Stephen Keshi has been managing the Nigerian National Team since 2011.
