The technical committee of the Ni­geria Football Federation (NFF), headed by Barrister Green with former Super Eagles head coach, as well as former Eagles striker, Victor Ikpeba have been handed the task of de­termining the fate of the national team coach, Stephen Keshi.
Though, there were strong indications that the former skipper of the senior na­tional team is likely to be retained, a com­muniqué signed by Emeka Inyama at the end of the NFF Executive Committee meeting held in Abuja and made available to Daily Sunsports seemed to have given a tacit approval to Keshi’s return as Eagles manager.

“The Executive Committee also resolved that the election of the NFF will still hold on Tuesday, 26th August, 2014 in Abuja as earlier agreed upon while the General Assembly will now hold on Wednesday, 18th November, 2014 at a venue to be de­termined later.”
Hon. Shehu Adamu was at the meeting appointed as acting 1st Vice President of the Nigeria Football Federation and re-af­firmed Barrister Musa Amadu as General Secretary of Nigeria Football Federation.
It was also decided that henceforth, funds generated from registration fees for the men and women federation cup compe­titions will now be shared at the ratio of 60 per cent to the federation and 40 per cent to be kept by football associations in the states. Committee also expressed sincere appreciation to the Lagos State Govern­ment for hosting the grand finale of the federation Cup for several years now and also approved that the state host the next three editions in 2015, 2016 and 2017.
