The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, has apologised to Nigerian on the
controversies over the sudden resignation of the erstwhile Super Eagles
coach, Sunday Oliseh.
In a statement released on Monday, NFF
categorically denied Oliseh allegations of either not being respected or
of not getting the support of the NFF.
The federation cited the
example of paying him three months’ salary in advance as a new coach –
something that had never happened previously in Nigeria football- in
order to help him settle down. The federation also claimed to have
introduced him to their principal partners/sponsors in order to show
they had total regard for and was fully supporting the coach.
Oliseh,
few minutes before sending his resignation email, the statement added,
had written a mail to the NFF President about his trip across Europe to
see players. The request the NFF President approved.
NFF while
clarifying that Oliseh indeed resigned and was not sacked, insisted that
they bear no grudge against him and wished him well in his future
andeavours.
In conclusion, NFF seek the forgiveness of Nigerian
for any wrong they might have done and asked for understanding and
continued support and prayers even as they go through a “very difficult
financial situation under which we are working”
