Former Super Eagles coach, Shaibu Amodu, has told Stephen Keshi to either resign from the national team’s coaching job if he has a reputation to protect or hang on to it like a beggar.
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) technical director described Keshi as a failure, saying he has no business continuing as the team’s coach.
“As a coach you are as good as your last game. If as at when they asked me to take over from him and I reckoned that it would affect my reputation if I failed, I expect any professional coach to assume the same position now, which is referring to Keshi,” Amodu told SL10.ng.
“So he alone will decide whether he has a reputation or not. If he has a reputation, he should walk out of the job but if he doesn’t, he should stay like a beggar.”
Amodu also wondered why the Big Boss was retained when Samson Siasia, who failed to qualify Nigeria for the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations, was sacked.
“We all know that Keshi has failed. To keep him is a bad precedent because when Siasia failed, we told the whole country that he failed and he should go, and not even Goodluck Jonathan could save him,” he said.
“And so if we want to live within those standards, we know what to do and this is my personal opinion.”
