Drama As The Chris Giwa-led NFF Board Reinstates Stephen Keshi As Coach After Court Judgement

Following a court ruling on Thursday, to sack the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) board led by
Amaju Pinnick, the Chris Giwa-led board has taken over the federation's secretariat.



The Giwa-led executive have also overturned some of the decisions taken by Pinnick, including the sacking of Stephen Keshi as the national team coach.





"The NFF board reviewed and feels so strongly to sustain the out-of contract assignment given to the technical crew of the Super Eagles led by Stephen Keshi at a very critical moment like this. Nigerians
want the national team to play well, win and a pride to them" a part of the communiqué reached at the executive committee read.




Keshi's contract expired after the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and he has been working on a match-by-match deal, before he was eventually dismissed after the Eagles beat Sudan 3-1 in Abuja.
