According to CompleteSport the NFF won’t be consulted before a coach is announced. However, there are unsure indications that Augustine Eguavoen, the NFF’s technical director may lead the team for the upcoming qualifiers against Benin and Rwanda.
One can only hope, as the source suggests, that the presidency will make a well-informed decision to guide the national team forward.
