Embattled ex-Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, has finally apologised to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for his utterances before and after his resignation.
Oliseh, 41, abruptly quit his role in February after less than eight months in charge, after falling out with the NFF for his constant outburst.
His shocking departure sparked a lot of criticism from fans over the timing – considering the magnitude of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Egypt.
The former Eagles skipper continued his verbal attacks aimed at his former employers even after quitting the team over issues ranging from his unpaid salary, players welfare and team selection.
But in the latest twist of event, the tactician, fondly remembered for his infamous rant aimed at his “insane critics” has pleaded with the football body.
He told the Punch on Monday: “Yes, it’s true that I apologised today (Monday) to the NFF.”
He added: “We’ve talked and I believe it is time to move forward positively. The point has been made and we have all taken things maturely.
“It was just important to sincerely put the records straight.”
Former internationals, Samson Siasia and Emmanuel Amunike were given the task to lead the Eagles in the two-legged encounter against the Pharaohs on Good Friday and Easter Monday.
