Keshi was fielding questions yesterday, Monday 25th Feb. 2013 on a Supersport Programme "Monday Night Football" when he asserted that but for a few "Bad Eggs" in the NFF, his relationship with the board remains unparalleled.
You'd recall the "Boss" as he's referred announced his resignation to a local media in South Africa hours after leading Nigeria to only her third AFCON title earlier in the year.
Keshi said on the programme;
"For now, I have a wonderful relationship with my president [Aminu Maigari], apart from one or two individuals (at the NFF),"
"If I'm tired of staying here, if I don't enjoy what I'm doing, I walk.
"It's not the end of the world, coaching Nigeria is not the end of the world.
"But you have to give me the respect and the freedom to do my job."
"I know for sure the letter was there, the letter was waiting before Nations Cup after we won 6-1 against Liberia in Calabar,"
"It wasn't from my president, not from the board of the federation, but from one or two other people.
"We were not told directly but the speculations were all over the place for some time.
"I kept hearing the same thing at the Nations Cup.
"But we said we are not bothered by this. Let them give us the sack letter and we leave.
"For now there is no sack letter, let's move on. Our job is hire today, fire tomorrow."
We wish him every success as he continues the rebuilding process with the Super Eagles Team.
