Super Eagles Head Coach, Stephen Okechukwu Keshi (CFR), has
debunked claims making the rounds that he has foreclosed the issue of team
skipper, Joseph Tambarin Yobo, returning to the team, insisting that Yobo will
sooner than later be back in the squad.
Super Eagles Media Officer, Ben Alaiya, quotes the coach as
saying he never spoke to any media organization regarding the return to the
national team or otherwise of Yobo in Abidjan
during the Eagles CHAN qualifier against the Elephants of Cote D’Ivoire.
“He is like a younger brother to me and I want the best for
him but there seems to be a desperate bid to create a war between me and my
captain and I will always reject that because he remains one of Nigeria’s
big football players and we cannot rush him out just like that”, Keshi said
The Eagles boss declared that there are issues he is always
misquoted out of context about. “When I speak about the NFF, it’s convenient
for people to misquote me, to create crisis between me and my employers but I
had never had any problem with them and they have said so.
