Stephen Keshi demands for 1.2billion Naira compensation from NFF

Former Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi has asked for a 1.2billion Naira compensation from the Nigeria Football Federation over his sack earlier this month.

The 53-year-old was sacked by the NFF for breaching the terms of his contract by applying for the Ivory Coast vacant coaching position.

Keshi, who was in charge of the Super Eagles team that won the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations, has written through his lawyers for compensation.

He was replaced by former team mate Sunday Oliseh.
