Shuaibu Amodu Glad To Return Super Eagles Job To Stephen Keshi

Shuaibu Amodu has said that he believes it is in the best interest of everybody that Stephen Keshi is back as the head coach of the Super Eagles.

Keshi was reinstated by the NFF on Wednesday, and Amodu feels it’s best Keshi finishes the African Cup qualifiers with the team.

“Following wide consultations that I have carefully made within the past two weeks since the appointment, and for the sake of professionalism, I want to specially appeal to you to reconsider the matter and allow Keshi to finish the project that he has started – the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying race.

“Sir, my opinion also is that the time –frame is too short to start tinkering with the fabric of the team or attempt to build a new team altogether.

“As Technical Director of the NFF, I am ready and willing to help build a better relationship among Keshi (with whom I have enjoyed good working relationship in the past and who is still very close to me), the players and the NFF Technical Committee.

“I am assuring you, Mr. President(Amaju Pinnick) that I will offer whatever assistance required by Keshi and his crew for the remaining two matches, and also be there to offer advice, suggestions and efforts towards building a stronger Super Eagles’ team after the qualifying race.”
