Ministry of Sports Gives Ultimatum, Directive To NFF Over Eagles Technical Adviser

The Ministry of Sports has given the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) till early next week to announce the appointment of the best Technical Adviser for the Super Eagles of Nigeria, BSNSports.com.ng can report.

According to a reliable source from the Ministry, the delay in the appointment of Super Eagles Coach was due to the Federation reluctance to heed to the directives of the Ministry.

"The delay in deciding a final technical adviser for the Super Eagles might not be unconnected with the reluctance of the NFF Board to heed the directives and advice of the Ministry, that the most qualified of the 4 coaches be picked for the job." A source from the Ministry told BSN Sports.

He added, "The Ministry’s position is hard and fast that Nigeria deserves the best gaffer at this stage to help with rebuilding the National team and not just anyone will do. The Ministry to avoid the challenge of funds to pay the adviser since approached Mr. President and secured approval for the FG to now pay the salaries of the coach. All NFF needs to do is pick a solid coach and forward the contract and salary document to the FG through the Ministry. 

"NFF is expected by now to have named atleast some indigenous players as part of the rebuilding of the National team. A deadline to resolve the issue of Technical adviser seems to have been set for early next week when NFF is to respond to the firm position of the Ministry."
