Former personal assistant to Sunday Oliseh, Tijani Babangida revealed 
today that Sunday Oliseh decided to resign after he found out the NFF 
had already contacted former Ivory Coast coach Havre 
Renard to replace 
him.
According to Babangida, Sunday Oliseh was incensed that NFF offered to 
pay Havre Renard $100,000 a month as salary while he was being owed four
 months salary of N5m.
“We saw this coming. Nothing is hidden. Oliseh was reliably informed 
that NFF went to talk to Herve Renard to take over the job as Super 
Eagles coach. This is one of the things that violated the contract he 
signed when he became coach,” Babangida said. 
“He believes his employers are not supporting him to succeed; rather, 
they are planning for him to fail. Especially, with the crucial game 
coming up in a month’s time against Egypt for the AFCON qualifier. He 
feels if he is the problem, why will he be a stumbling block? Hence, his
 resignation. 
"He resigned so that NFF can do what they want to do. With match bonuses
 owed, salaries not paid, camping allowances too. The house NFF promised
 him has not even been secured for him. So, where will he stay when he 
comes to Abuja? Hotel?'' 
''So, many violations of his contract. No one can work like that. NFF 
cannot pay Oliseh N5million but they went promising Renard $100,000. 
This is sad. Why won’t he not resign?”
