Keshi |
Coach
Stephen Keshi has said he is willing to return to take charge of the Super
Eagles if asked by President Goodluck Jonathan.
During a re-conciliatory meeting with the warring factions of the Nigeria Football
Federation on Wednesday night, President Jonathan demanded the reinstatement of
Keshi as coach.
Goal
reported earlier that Keshi would return to the Nigeria job even though the NFF
has not officially confirmed it.
The
former Togo and Mali national team coach was sacked two weeks ago following his
team's 3-1 win over Sudan for poor start to the Africa Cup of Nations
qualifiers where the Eagles have only picked up four points out of a possible
12 leaving the team on the brink.
The Afcon
2013 winner said he had no pre-knowledge of his recall to his post nor his
ordered return by the President.
"Well
I am just hearing from you. But if the President of my country asked me to
return, who am I to refuse," he told media at the Abuja National Stadium
on Thursday.
Nigeria
needs to win their two remaining qualifiers against Congo and South Africa next
month to seal a spot at the finals of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations as
defending champions.
