Sacked Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi is to drag the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to court for “wrongful dismissal defamation”.
Africanfootball.com can exclusively reveal that a Kaduna based law firm has formally notified the NFF to that effect.
“Keshi’s lawyers have written the NFF threatening to sue wrongful dismissal and defamation of character”, a source informed Africanfootball.com
“But the truth of the matter is that he does not have a leg to stand on as far as this matter is concerned.
“its all laughable and he’s just chasing shadows.”
It was also understood that he was paid his outstanding monies before his sack.
Earlier media reports suggested he was to take his case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), but the coach himself later denied this.
Keshi was sacked on July 5 after the NFF announced that he was not working in line with the corporate objectives of the federation.
