The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is reportedly furious with the Head Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria, Stephen Okechukwu Keshi over his failure to attend the meeting of the technical committee of the Federation on Tuesday.
Keshi who jetted out to his California, USA base without permission has been recalled and is to answer a query.
A board member of the NFF, Emeka Inyama said: "Keshi has been recalled and he must be in Abuja on Monday (next week) if he still cares about his job," he said.
He also noted that Keshi was duly notified of the meeting, but still chose to leave.
"Keshi was formally invited to the Technical and Development Committee meeting on Tuesday to discuss, among other issues, the list of players he released for the matches ahead, his backroom staff and misunderstanding between him and some of his players.
"But Keshi did not show up and the NFF doesn't know why he did not show up. The fact remains that Keshi applied for a leave to see his family and it has not been approved or confirmed and he traveled. The NFF wants him to be part of all the discussions affecting his team with the Committee before he would be allowed to proceed to the US for his holiday, but he chose to leave without permission.
"But he had the time to collect his cars from Globacom on Monday and jet out to the US just less than 24 hours before the Technical Committee meeting on Tuesday. We shouldn't condone what is bad. It will only take him $120 to change his ticket from going on that monday and to go the next day. That is what we are saying. The meeting has a lot to do with his team, FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 World Cup Qualifiers."
