Keshi wrong over Martins – Lawal



Versatile former international Garba Lawal has disagreed with Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi’s decision to exclude Seattle Sounders new signing Obafemi Martins from his programme for the 2014 World Cup qualifiers and the FIFA Confederations Cup.
The  veteran striker was anonymous during the March 23 Group F World Cup qualifying game against the Harambee Stars of Kenya in Calabar, forcing Keshi, who named a 30-man squad for the national team’s matches between June and July, to deny him a place in the squad.
However, Atlanta ’96 Olympic gold medallist Lawal insists the Eagles manager has made a mistake leaving his former teammate in the national team out  in the cold, saying his experience will be vital to the team during the qualifiers.

Yobo should be grateful to Keshi – Taribo

But former Inter Milan and AC Milan strongman Taribo berated the Fenerbahce defender for his outburst, saying it was “immature and uncalled for”.

Keshi Says, "I Will Try to Speak to Odemwingie" -- Do You Think This Is A Good Idea?



Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has offered some sympathy for Osaze Odemwingie, as the striker continues his war of words with West Bromwich Albion, and says he will try to talk to him.
Odemwingie was reportedly fined £76,000 by the club after he again took to Twitter to vent his frustrations at his ill treatment. Keshi, who has also been at the receiving end of some Twitter fireworks from the forward, was quick to jump to his aid when questioned about the current situation.  "Osaze is a good kid. But right now, I don't know exactly what's going on with him. "I was surprised when I read that he had been fined such a huge sum of money. But it is hard to say what exactly the situation is until I speak to him." And Keshi says he plans to do so. "I will try to speak to him. Maybe when I talk to him, we can understand a little more of what he is going through, but he’s a good person."

NFF never gave Keshi what it took to perform—Are



Dr. Lekan Are, a sports lover who raised the Cocoa Research Institute Team in Ibadan, Oyo State, many years ago, spoke on the just concluded African Cup of Nations, NFF, Stephen Keshi’s efforts and other issues in an interview withAKINWALE ABOLUWADE
What are the lessons from the just concluded African Cup of Nations?
I think the first thing is that we should all congratulate the coach, Stephen Keshi. He knew what he was doing. People were trying to intervene but fortunately, people like Chief (Adegboye) Onigbinde and Segun Odegbami said that they should leave him alone. He knows the format he wants and what he wants to do. If you disrupt his plans, he might not be able to do exactly what he wanted.

I regret insulting Keshi — Osaze •Musa, Emenike in Portugal





Estranged Super Eagles attacker Osaze Odemwingie has said he regrets his abusive Twitter comments. He claimed they were made because coach Stephen Keshi was not fair to him. 
The West Bromwich striker had in the wake of the release of the Nigeria provisional team list for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations taken to his Twitter account and made disparaging comments against Keshi, the team captain and some Nigeria Football Federation officials.
