Sunday Oliseh, coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria, resigned his appointment very early on Friday, citing a lack of support from the Nigeria Football federation (NFF) and violation of the employment contract, among others.
Oliseh announced his resignation on Twitter, and TheCable has now exclusively obtained the full text of the gaffer’s letter to the NFF.
THE FULL TEXT
Dear General Secretary of NFF,
Object: Letter of Resignation.

Due to incessant Violations of our signed agreement (Contract) I am hereby informing you of my decision to terminate our working collaboration signed in July 2015.
The most important objective is for the Super Eagles of Nigeria to qualify to the next AFCON and the World Cup 2018.
Since so little help is being rendered me in getting the players to give their best and very vital conditions and advantages to the team play are also being sacrificed coupled with non redress of the aforementioned despite my several e-mails and others, seeking your aid to effectively carry out my duties were ignored.

These unconducive working conditions that my coaching crew and myself have to live with, your contractual violations and the interest of the nation necessitate that I tender my resignation and recourse to the termination of our working agreement.
Many thanks for the opportunity to serve my fatherland.
Sunday Oliseh
Chief Coach Super Eagles of Nigeria

That’s a very good decision, exposes the corrupt Nff,befor them degrace you.
It is saddening that coaches both indigenous and foreign don’t last on Super Eagle’s job. Things don’t seem to work in this my Country. The NFF seem to be too high handed with Coaches; it’s either the coach’s salaries are owed or someone somewhere in NFF is soffocating the coach.
My take: since NFF cannot work with Coaches, the Coaches should report to either the Presidency or to another Football body. Judedike
