Former
head coach of the Super Eagles, Sunday Oliseh, is expected to appear before the
House of Representatives’ Committee on Sports, to answer questions over his
shock resignation.
The ex Juventus and Borussia Dortmund midfielder, will be asked
to explain his decision to quit the job, with just a month to the crucial
double header against Egypt.
Oliseh had accused the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), of
failing to support him and owing his salaries.
“Oliseh has been invited by the committee on sports.
He is to give his own side of his resignation story,” a top source at the NASS
told Vanguard.
Another source said: “You know Oliseh, he will not
hold back anything, he will give details of how some top officials made sure
they frustrated him because they were not the ones who facilitated his appointment.
You should expect him to shoot from the hips.”
The Minister for Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung, is
also expected to be at the National Assembly for the hearing.
“The Sports Minister has insisted he be part of the
committee’s hearing and so he will be in attendance on Thursday,” a sports
ministry official said.
