Super Eagles’ coach samson Siasia has been fired as chief coach of the national football teams and the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has ordered a committee to meet next week to advice on a replacement.
MTNFootball.com exclusively gathered that the decision by the NFF executive committee headed by president Aminu Maigari was unanimous and they have asked that the technical committee should meet next week to recommend a replacement.
The technical committee earlier this month recommended that Siasia be sacked after he failed to qualify Nigeria for  the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations.


“His dismissal has been ratified by the executive committee,” a top official informed MTNFootball.com
Siasia was hired in November 2010 with the immediate mandate to qualify Nigeria to at least the semi-final of the Nations Cup to be staged in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea.
He failed to deliver as the Eagles were forced to a 2-2 draw by Guinea in Abuja, when Nigeria needed at least a win.
He was a favourite of the fans to lead the Super Eagles after he guided the country to the final of the 2005 FIFA U20 World Cup as well as the final of the football event of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
The NFF also comfirmed that the country will play hot to surprise Nation Cup qualifier Botswana in friendly on November 12 and an unnamed country three days later.
