Tragedy struck Nigerian football!!!

After guiding the U23 team to a bronze medal at the Olympics in Brazil, coach Samson Siasia has called it quit with Nigerian football.
In his words with Vanguard, he said “My next step is that I am done with Nigeria for now.”
“You can’t keep going to a place where they don’t appreciate you. It does not worth it. Sometimes it is not about the money but the approach. They seem not to appreciate the sacrifices. I know how much I have sacrificed since the team began camping two years ago.
“How can you keep going to people who don’t appreciate you? It does not make sense, so I am done for now. I have to go somewhere else where they will appreciate what I have done and what I can do and pay me the respect that I deserve.”
While calling for accountability on the funds allorted for the Olympics team, he said “We are still waiting to see where the money that was meant for us to fly to Brazil has gone to. Nobody has said anything.
“The federal government sent the money to the Nigeria Olympic Committee (NOC) and the NOC said they sent the money to the airline in Florida which up till now they have not received anything, even the airline is planning to sue them for breach of contract because they were supposed to pay some money to them even if they were to cancel the arrangement.
“That is even another issue. We don’t even know how they are going to settle that.”
Siasia who claimed to have always returned for the love of his fans concluded that those at the helm of affairs of Nigerian sports are not reliable to work with.
“I know and that is why I keep coming to do the dirty jobs for them because of my numerous fans out there but I can’t just continue because those fans are not the policy makers. How can you keep toiling for five months without even your salary?
“Nothing has changed in the last two years. It has been from bad to worse, so we must sit down and do something about the structure of Nigerian football and by extension sports in general.

“It doesn’t worth it to work with the people running sports now in Nigeria. From the Federation to the sports ministry. They don’t have it and will not give what they don’t have. It feels bad.”
