Sacked Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi may have dragged the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to court, demanding a compensation of a billion Naira (more than $400 million).

Last week, it was reported that Keshi had dragged the NFF to court for “wrongful dismissal and defamation”.

A top source told said “Keshi’s lawyers have demanded for a billion Naira from the NFF as compensation for defaming their client.”

The letter from the Kaduna-based law firm was received by the NFF on Friday.

Keshi was sacked by the NFF on July 5 after the NFF disciplinary committee investigated various allegations against him.

This was four months after the 53-year-old coach signed a new two-year contract after his initial three-year deal with the NFF ran out at last year’s World Cup in Brazil. [myad]
