EXPOSED!!: Take a Look At The tough clauses in Keshi’s contract (Must Read)



The Nigeria Football Federation presented 27 clauses before the out of contract Super Eagles Coach Stephen Keshi in the new deal offered him last week. New Telegraph exclusively scooped a copy of the contract that is currently causing ripples between the ‘Big Boss’ and the NFF and the document revealed that Keshi’s major remunerations have not changed.
Clause 6.1 stated clearly that the coach would take home N5m as salary every
month while Clause 6.2 stated that the coach would be entitled to twice the amount of match bonus given to each player for every match both competitive and friendly.

According to Clause 7.3, the ‘Big Boss’ will receive N3m every year as accommodation money. 
Clause 8 is the most interesting because the NFF offered the coach N500 for his annual transportation expenses “The NFF shall pay the Head Coach the sum of Five Hundred (N500,00.00) naira annually as transportation allowance.”
Thought it is unclear whether the figure was an error, the amount was also spelt out in words to add to the confusion. In Clause 8.2, it was stated that a business class ticket will be provided for the coach for his official trips and when embarking on holidays. Clause 8.4 also showed that the NFF would always refund all expenses incurred by the coach while on official assignments.
The NFF however gave Keshi a target of qualifying Nigeria for the 2016 CHAN and at least the semifinals of the 2017 Nations Cup finals. It was also proposed in Clause 5.5 that the Eagles Head Coach should be ready to work under the supervision of the national technical director while Clause 5.7 stated that the coach would have to offer technical support to all the other national teams.
Already, Keshi has referred to the document as a “slave contract” and has promised to open discussions with the NFF when he returns from the US. “My lawyer and my brother are studying the contract for now and we are going to come out with our position after meeting with the NFF,” Keshi said.
Chairman of the NFF technical committee, Felix Anyansi- Agwu, said it was unfair to refer to the contract as a “slave contract”
“When the time comes Nigerians will know the truth but I am sure we are very fair to Keshi and we expect him to respect the federation rather than making unfair remarks despite our efforts,” he said.
