Nigerian Football Coaches Association boss dares Taiwo to name bribe taking coaches
National President of the Nigerian Football coaches Association Bitrus Bewarang
The National President of the Nigerian Football coaches Association has challenged anyone with concrete information on any Nigerian National team coach collecting bribes for team call ups to make such facts available immediately.
This follows an allegation by Former Super Eagles left back Taye Taiwo that some of the National team bosses collected bribes from players to invited them for National team duty. However the defender distanced himself from such doing and Bewarang who was pissed of by the allegation feels individuals who believe such should please produce the facts so that the necessary sanction will be taken.
- Keshi submits Tanzania plans to NFF despite Ivory Coast job wranglings
- Bonus! Bonus! Lowdown on Bet9ja and why you must join Bet9ja today!..
- NFF may drag Ivorian FA to FIFA, CAF eventually
- Rosenborg want Flying Eagles captain Musa Mohammed
Bewarang, said his association has decided to take the allegations seriously to among other things, bring sanity to the profession in the country. He said: “These accusations are becoming many, and if nothing is done now, it would soon get out of hand. We are now challenging those making the accusations to come forward with their facts. They should make them available, and let us work on it. If not, such persons should keep their cool and should stop all the blackmail”.
“Does it mean that Taiwo has been bribing his way to national teams all this while?” Bewarang wondered. “If that is the case, he should be able to make available more facts on all these.”
He continued: “And why is it now that he is not being invited that he is making such claims? This is a player who grew from the wings, and passed through many coaches, coming out to make such a statement. We are not taking it lightly, he should come up and substantiate his claims.”
He further expressed his displeasure at how some of the national team coaches were appointed without any input from the Coaches’ Association, saying that although it is the duty of the NFF to employ whoever they want as the national team coach, they should request for the technical input of the Association before such appointments are made, because it is a “national assignment”, as such a Coach serves as the ambassador of the country whenever they go for international assignments.
