Nigerian Coaches Back Keshi For Success

Nigerian coaches have declared their
support for Super Eagles coach,
Stephen Keshi who recently signed a
fresh 2-year contract with the Nigeria
Football Federation.
Speaking from his base in Calabar,
national Public Relations Officer of the
Nigerian Football Coaches Association,
Etta Egbe said, “Nigerian coaches will
give Keshi our total support to succeed.
We want to congratulate both Keshi and
the Nigeria Football Federation in
particular for re-signing Keshi because
the pressure was too much.
“We know that if it were based on public
opinion, Keshi would not have been
given the job. So, we thank the NFF for
believing in the Nigerian coach,” Egbe
said.
Egbe said Keshi must encourage
younger players into the Super Eagles
squad.
“He is lucky because he won’t have any
problems getting the right players.
Manu Garba and Samson Siasia have
enormous talents in the U-20 and U-23
squads. Keshi can benefit a lot from
these teams. But he has to complement
the skills of the youthful players with
experience.”
