SIASIA MUST GO- YAKUBU

Blackburn Rovers
striker, Yakubu Aiyegbeni believes
that Samson Siasia should be fired
for failing to qualify the country to
the Nations Cup. “When you don’t
get the result, the coach has to go.
That’s football. Siasia didn’t get the
country to the Nations Cup, while
Shuaibu Amodu and Christian
Chukwu did and they still got
fired,” said Yakubu in an
interview. “The manager did not do
well even after all the power and
support he received. He did not help
the team. We should therefore look
for some one else to try his luck.
Stephen Keshi can do the job.”

‘The Yak’ has not featured for Nigeria since his unpardonable miss in last year’s World Cup match against South Korea. He has reportedly cut off contact with Siasia even when the coach tried to reach him when he took over the national team in November. However, he insisted he has not quit international football.
