The controversy trailing Stephen Keshi’s resignation as coach of the Super Eagles may have finally been laid to rest after he made his decision public while speaking with journalists in Brasilia, Brazil.
Stephen Keshi reportedly made public his intention after the Super Eagles’ painful loss to France in the second round of the World Cup currently holding in Brazil.
In an exclusive interview with the CableNG, Keshi gave an insight into why he is leaving the team saying: “Yes. I have done my bit. I am tired of all the intrigues and backbiting and insinuations I get. The criticisms are nothing really because even siblings criticise each other.
“In this job sometimes it goes overboard and my family and those of my players get called names. I have had to tell the players many times to ignore those criticisms and just focus on the tasks at hand,” he said.
