The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), will slam a $30,000 fine on Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, for his eight-minutes video rant posted on YouTube.
Oliseh, who uploaded the video on his own website, hit back at “insane” critics, for their comments over Nigeria’s early exit from the African Nations Championship (CHAN) in Rwanda.
The 41-year-old has since apologized for his outburst, claiming it was not for the country’s football fans.
“When I spoke of critics I did not mean the general public of Nigeria! I would never dare refer to my beloved country men as insane!” Oliseh tweeted.
“How dare I insult 170 Million people who I love and have shown me so much love. Please forgive the error of editing! God bless you all.”
It is understood that Oliseh will likely consult his lawyers about the fine, with a view to contesting the punishment.
