According to The Guardian, a letter was sent to NFF from the office of the NSC yesterday July 12th, stating that Sunday Oliseh's appointment as the new head coach for Super Eagles after Stephen Keshi's sack did not conform with the Procurement Act procedure for engagement.
According to NSC, the office of the head coach of the Super Eagles is still vacant and no one has been appointed to take over from Stephen Keshi. A source in the Nigeria Sports Commission's management team said
"The procedure for hiring Sunday Oliseh did not pass through the Procurement Act. It was the same when the NSC employed the High Performance Directors. The Sports Commission requested for waiver for selective bidding, which enabled us to select people based on their credentials. We selected people and interviewed them in the United Kingdom. The Deputy Director in charge of Procurement attended because it is a procurement exercise, which must go in accordance with the Procurement Act. The engagement of Oliseh is a contractual one but it is unfortunate that the federation may not have been guided accordingly. If the federation goes ahead to unveil Oliseh on Wednesday without following the due process, they would be violating the Procurement Act, they would be found liable. The truth is that even if they have secured the consent of a private company to pick Oliseh’s bills, the law of the land on engagement must be observed. The procedure is for the NFF to write to the Sports Commission informing them of their plans to engage a technical expertise like the Eagles chief coach and his assistants, specifying the terms of relationship. If they don’t want to advertise, they can do selective bidding. If they must interview and hire Oliseh alone, they must apply for waiver of certificate of no objection giving reason for the decision to settle for him alone. Unveiling him on Wednesday is tantamount to violation of the due process of the procurement in accordance with Procurement Act. Writing to NSC is just a point of information and point of information is not a legal process. NSC has no business with their day-to-day operation but if the operation violates the law, we will draw their attention to it and take any managerial and administrative measure that must be taken. As I speak to you, NSC does not know whether there is any unveiling this week because we are an institution guided by official communication and far as we are concerned, nobody from the federation has communicated to us officially if there will be any unveiling". he said
Hmmm ok
ReplyDeleteNo Go Area!!! Govt is not allowed to pocknose in football.
DeleteWho said so?
DeletePhew! NFF ought to know the right procedures and adhere to them.
ReplyDeleteWonder what they do at that glass house if they can't follow mere administrative protocol.

Idiots are not aware that football matters are not subject to government aprovals and administrative protocols...na sanction una don dey find again...mumu country men

Na wa o this naija people no want change in terms of sports
ReplyDeleteTheir concern.
ReplyDeletemad people.
ReplyDeleteAll this power rancor and d*ck measuring contests!! So they didn't react till the NFF decided to unveil the new manager? The suspicious thing about this is that I am certain that Keshi sympathtists are the ones behind this move.
ReplyDeleteFIFA will soon intervene....leave politics outta football!
ReplyDeleteMaybe the next super eagles coach will be Yerima Hassan from Katsina State. Former Kano Pillars Goal keeper. @amfestus
ReplyDeleteThis is an issue we always face in Nigeria. Putting the cart before the horse. Where were they (FG) when NFF started this whole engagement process with Oliseh?
ReplyDeleteWe want Oliseh. Does these goons ever care about what the people want.
ReplyDeletepls can someone tell PMB that this is not Army where he may know everything...this is football and the cohorts doing this this are angry that their person Keshi has been removed and want someone they can influence. Their actions will surely incur the wrath of FIFA! They should be very careful
ReplyDeleteWhy am i lovin this ish even though my Patriotism and luv for my Country's Team remains plenary.
ReplyDeleteFuck Oliseh.

ReplyDeleteRubbish
ReplyDeleteDisappointed
ReplyDeleteWhat could be their reason if not that his name is not Muhammed Danjuma, or Musa Ibrahim. The offend he committed was jst that he hails from Igbo tribe. God is watching...
ReplyDeleteJust passing by.....
ReplyDeleteOf course they would, afterall he is Sunday Oliseh, not Kabiru Musa. All Southerners should be ashamed of themselves. We provide ALL the money used in running this Zoo, yet, We are no where. Are you aware that ALL the Three Arms of this sorry government are headed by aboki? Can aboki ever allow this to happen to them? This people contribute nothing in this country, yet, they are always doing the sharing of bounties! Shame on the South! Shame on us all! If we agree to come together, NO aboki will be Perm Sec!
ReplyDeleteYou need help with your sense of reasoning
DeleteWat e do na.......office can shack sum pipo Sha......shiooooor!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHaters! But if it is an hausa man who is to be unveiled as new coach, all dis grammar will nt arise. Nigerians has nt seen anytin yet wit dis new govt. Smh
ReplyDeleteNFF wahala is too much, they've reasonable things to attend to but they won't. Weray people. #richie
ReplyDeleteIs government supposed to be getting involved in who is picked as the country's coach?. This country is a very, very big mess. I must say that we have a very long way to go with our mentallity. The best thing to do is allow them to have their way, let us see how the person the govt. chooses performs. You can not politicise sports. It doesn't make sense. The NFA should try and privatise their financing and not continue to allow the FG to pay the coach's salary. That way, the govt. would not have any say what so ever
ReplyDeleteI bet you that FG wants an Aboki to become coach. This govt. is so tribalised that it is becoming stupidly shameful.
ReplyDeleteMust every thing be tribilised? I don't feel the NSC is right but guys leave politics and address the issue. Haba up guys should be ashamed of your selves any small thing and tribal issues comes up. Nawa for Nigerians o
ReplyDeletewhy???
ReplyDeleteIt's the Northern Agenda. They wont rest till they occupy every prominent position. This wont augur well for Nigeria. My dear Yorubas, the joke is on you. Lol.

ReplyDeleteOooooooooh my..!

***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
Nigerians can be stupid even when educated we still act like real fools .We all scream at corruption and impunity been the bane of our present backward plight as a nation.
ReplyDeleteThe letter from NSC clearly states that a procedure which i'm sure was known to the NFF' needs be followed to enable the appointment of Oliseh a legal action .Why is it so difficult to ponder on the reasons the NSC just gave in their letter ,why not ask Amaju Pinnick and NFF why they failed to conform to the stated procedure .
So everything has to be reduced to tribal and ethnic bigotry we all go to churches and mosques where love is preached daily ;wonder why we just hate ourselves this much ;before the goons starts replying me with their diatribes let it be known that i think Oliseh is a perfect choice ;however why cant due process just be followed .
If it where a white man that says the things we say to ourselves we would all scream 'rascist ' however we dont see through our baseless hate for humanity as espoused on all issues .Whats wrong with an hausa man ,are you any better ;can you create a pin talkless of a creation of God .
Does chelsea ,man u etc ask what race you are before making purchases of players or coaches .We are so stupid and shallow in this country and the hordes of youths who post on fora like this are not worthy of the education they probably lay claim to
What a sad state for this nation called Nigeria
The slogan "ONE NIGERIA" is just a falacy of ilicit composition, let's not deceive ourselfs we arnt one, noting makes us one. @ any given opportunity igbos are slaughterd in d north, 90 percent of yorubas hate igbos, the yorubas are suspicous of the northerners, same wit the north, fulani herds men be killing their closest neighbours in the middle belt. How are we one

No problem. Let NFF sort out things with them. If this is a ploy to bring back keshi, even on a temporal arrangement, they have failed.
ReplyDeleteSunday, will do the job tastefully.
This is just about politics, and its a pity how we allow power tussle to affect our sports.
