Why we dropped Siasia, Amuneke from Eagles job –NFF
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has explained why the duo of coaches Samson Siasia and Emmanuel Amuneke were not considered for the job of handling the Super Eagles for the two major international friendlies billed for May and June this year.
Rising from her meeting held at the NFF secretariat in Abuja on Wednesday, the committee explained that the decision to leave out Siasia and Amuneke from the Eagles job was to enable the two coaches concentrate fully on their pending important assignments of taking the Dream team VI and the Flying Eagles to the Rio 2016 Olympics and the Africa U-20 Cup of Nations tournaments respectively.
The committee strongly solicited for the NFF Board to give Coach Samson Siasia all the support towards winning gold medal of the men’s football tournament of this year’s Olympics in Rio de Janeiro , Brazil.
The Committee praised Amuneke for promoting most of the FIFA U- 17 World Cup winning players to the Flying Eagles team , noting with delight that his action was in tandem with the vision of the present NFF administration ‘s promotion of growth, continuity and seamless transition of the age grade players to the senior teams.
It mandated the big wigs of the Abuja Glass house to support the world cup winning coach as the national U- 20 team prepares for the race for the Zambia 2017 tournament.

President Idriss Deby has won a fifth term in office after winning 62%
of the vote in elections earlier this month, official results show.
He has avoided a second-round vote, with his nearest rival, Saleh Kebzabo, taking 13% of votes cast.On Tuesday, opposition parties said the vote counting lacked credibility.
Mr Deby, who took power in a coup 26 years ago, is seen by Western governments as a bulwark against Islamist militants in central Africa.
The headquarters of the regional multi-national force fighting Boko Haram insurgents is based in Chad.
The former French colony is also a base for France’s military operations in Africa
Mr Deby’s supporters celebrated by firing guns into the air in the central square in the capital, N’Djamena.
Ahead of the announcement of the results late on Thursday, there was a strong military presence in the city, the AFP news agency reports.
During the 10 April election, there was an online blackout as access to the internet was cut and mobile phones were unable to send text messages.
Twelve candidates ran against Mr Deby and turnout among the more than six million registered voters was 71%, the electoral commission said.
Opposition politicians allege that hundreds of ballot boxes disappeared during the counting process.
Mr Deby has denied opposition claims that about 60 soldiers who voted against him have disappeared, the Associated Press news agency reports.
In the run-up to the vote, protest marches were banned and four activists campaigning against the president were given suspended sentences.
