After heading the Super Eagles of Nigeria for just seven months, Sunday Oliseh resigned early Friday via Twitter.

Coming less than a month before an all-important qualifier against the Pharaohs of Egypt, Oliseh’s decision hit many by surprise; and this is how Nigerians reacted on Twitter:

Sunday Oliseh resigned? I’m surprised we haven’t had anyone blame it on Jonathan. He didn’t provide funds for NFF….lol…

@SundayOOliseh wrong timing! 2 wrongs dont make a right. To some Nigerians you were a savior but to most, you may now be seen as a saboteur!

Some Media houses owe staff years of unpaid wages. We berate them. Rather than do likewise to NFF; people try to blame Sunday Oliseh?

We have a very bad system where Coaches like Sunday Oliseh go for months without Salary and we expect them to perform miracles.

Those who appointed Sunday Oliseh are sick people. The lack experience to manage our national team. He believes he shouldn’t be criticized

If Sunday Oliseh can resign in protest in less than a year as Super Eagles Coach, can someone explain to me why Godwin Emefiele….nvm
