There have been conflicting reports especially in the media
concerning the main cause of the drama
that ensued yesterday between Super Eagles captain Vincent Enyeama and current coach Sunday Oliseh yesterday as
both were involved in a major bust-up.
It has now been revealed exclusively on AfricanFootball.com that the bust-up was as a result of the Akwa-Ibom born Goalkeeper being informed that team mate and CSKA forward Ahmed Musa would now captain of the Super Eagles henceforth.
According to sources close to the Eagles in Belgium, Enyeama and Oliseh went seriously
at each other on Tuesday night after the Eagles coach informed him he was no
longer team captain and as such he should now share a room with another player.It has now been revealed exclusively on AfricanFootball.com that the bust-up was as a result of the Akwa-Ibom born Goalkeeper being informed that team mate and CSKA forward Ahmed Musa would now captain of the Super Eagles henceforth.
Stripping of the captaincy from the Lille goalkeeper may not be unconnected with events in June when he tore a query issued him by the NFF general secretary after his provocative comments about the safety of the northern Nigerian town of Kaduna to stage an AFCON qualifier against Chad.

A committee later moved to put the goalkeeper back in line by recommending he be banned from the team and removed as captain.
He will later stay away from an AFCON qualifier in Tanzania and a friendly against Niger following the death of his mother .
However, on Tuesday, pent up anger and frustration from the whole drama in Kaduna took another disturbing turn when 101 capped Enyeama was informed he was no longer captain.
“It was a nasty and ugly scene as Enyeama and Oliseh insulted the life out of each other that at a time it looked like security would have to be called up,” a source informed AfricanFootball.com
Several senior players led by Chelsea midfielder Mikel Obi tried to stop Enyeama from quitting the team’s camp in Belgium thereafter.
And one of the official Twitter handles of the NFF simply reported at the heat of the row “It’s true there was a little misunderstanding in the camp of @NGSuperEagles, but the matter has been resolved. Enyeama stays in camp.”
However Sunday Oliseh just seems to be towing one very bad road concerning this issue and i'm very sure we all might know how this one would end up, and trust me it might not be good for the new Super Eagles boss...Just ask Siasia
