"NFF Offers Me A Slave Contract" --Keshi

Coach Stephen Keshi has expressed dissatisfaction with a new offer
tabled by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), which he described as
a slave contract.

The 53-year-old has yet to reach an agreement with the NFF on a new
deal since the end of his initial three-year contract at the 2014 Fifa
World Cup in Brazil, where he led the Super Eagles to the round of 16.

Keshi said he has received his new contract from the NFF but has been
far from impressed.

"From the clauses I have seen so far, I don't know what words to use
but the contract can be described as a 'slave contract," quipped
Keshi.

Keshi Recently Disclosed to Newsmen that His Agents Were in
Negotiation With Burkina Faso for their Vacant Manegerial Post.

Informationng.com understands that the NFF had planned to inscribe
stringent clauses, such as making the ex-Togo and Mali coach
answerable to several persons and committees, in his new contract.

It was learnt that Keshi has now been offered a two-year contract
effective from March 1, 2015 with him to meet several targets or else
the deal was off.

He should guide the country to the semi-finals of the 2016 African
Nations Championship (CHAN) and also the last four of the next Africa
Cup of Nations (Afcon) or the contract will be terminated at his
employers' "absolute discretion."

He is also required to sign a code of conduct.

Keshi himself revealed that he will be paid five million Naira (less
than $25,000), same as he also received during his initial three-year
contract.

This week, the 'Big Boss' lost out in the race to become the new
head coach of Burkina Faso following the appointment of ex-Gabon and
Niger handler Gernot Rohr.
