The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), has insisted that it has cleared all Sunday Oliseh’s outstanding salaries.
Oliseh resigned as the coach of the Super Eagles on Friday and cited unpaid salaries, lack of cooperation, among other factors as reasons for his decision to quit.
In an official statement, the NFF denied owing the former national team captain, stating that “Contrary to claims by Oliseh that he was being owed wages and did not receive support from the NFF, top officials confirmed that he was this week paid the sum of N20 million, being salaries for three months (December 2015, January 2016 and February 2016) and half-year rent for July-December 2015. He was signed on July 2015.
“The only money he is owed is the bonus for the World Cup qualifier against Swaziland in Port Harcourt in November 2015, which the NFF had promised to pay players and officials on resumption of camping for the matches against Egypt.”
