The Nigeria Football Federation president, Amaju Pinnick, has insisted that new Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, remains the best option for the team. He stated that Nigeria got the former Eagles captain even as other African countries lined up to recruit him.

Pinnick reiterated the position of the NFF on Tuesday via Twitter and the federation’s website as he defended some decisions of the FA that had taken public scrutiny.
He said, “We have no regrets appointing Sunday Oliseh. Other African countries were gunning for him, but he opted for his country. Oliseh’s stock in international football is high because apart from his work with FIFA, he has a company that trains and grades coaches all over the world.
