An applicant for the job of a national team coach of Nigeria says he lost faith in the process after he was introduced to the official who he was told will have the final say on his application, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) called for interested candidates to apply for the vacant job of the U17, U20 and U23 of the men’s team.
One of the applicants reached out to us in the light of reports that the U20 job has been handed to veteran Nigerian League coach Abdul Maikaba, and the U23 job will be between the duo of Daniel Amokachi and Samson Siasia.
” You see there is no transparency or whatsoever in the process. I can tell you that the man I was told will have the decisive say on who get the job can’t speak a word of English. How then can he interview interested candidates?”, he asked.
” What I noticed was that they already had an idea of who will get the job, and the process was just a mere formality with people who know next to nothing about the entire process”.
