The letter reads in part:  “We demand the retraction of your (NFF) defamatory documents, a written apology to our client to be circulated internationally and the sum of N1,000,000,000.00 (One Billion Naira) only as damages for defamation.”

#BBB NEWS| Stephen Keshi Threatens To Drag Nigeria Football Federation To FIFA Court

Stephen Keshi, who was sacked on Saturday as head coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles, is threatening to file a case against the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) at the FIFA Court of Arbitration.

Mr. Keshi was fired over allegations that he applied for a job to coach Les Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire. The former Super Eagles coach denied seeking the Ivorian coaching job, according to a report prepared by the NFF disciplinary committee following a meeting attended by Mr. Keshi before his sack.

However, the NFF insisted that the embattled coach did not present enough strong evidence to prove his innocence.

Subsequently, the NFF considered the coach’s alleged application for the coaching job in Cote d’Ivoire as a breach of contract. The Nigerian football governing body therefore felt justified in removing Mr. Keshi, who led Nigeria to the AFCON Cup, without giving him any financial compensation.
