Just barely a year after he took the job, Sunday Oliseh has resigned as the coach of Nigeria’s senior national team, Super Eagles.
Oliseh, who resigned in the wee hours of Friday, February 26, cited contract violations by the Nigerian Football Federation, as justification for his decision to step down.
He also cited a lack of support from the country’s football administrators, unpaid wages and benefits to his players as well as his assistant coaches, a further justification for his unexpected announcement.
The former captain of the Super Eagles announced his resignation via his page on micro-blogging social media platform, Twitter.
