“Gernot Rohr will not be sacked as Super Eagles coach. He will remain in the job. I have confidence in him,” the NFF president said to @osasuo on Monday night. “Gernot Rohr has taken us to the semifinal, the target we set for him,” Pinnick added.
“There are some people that have been calling on me and the federation to sack Gernot. But I am not going to do that. In fact, Gernot is going on refresher training period with FC Bayern after the AFCON 2019. We have a long-term plan with him.
“We have had rocky and difficult moments in our relationship, but this is normal in any relationship between two people. He’s a good coach and we want him to remain with us. That said, we will work together on what needs to be improved upon,” the NFF president said.

So each time we don't win a trophy we should sack the coach? That's not wise. Keep him to continue building the team. Semi final is not beans.

God will punish this NFF chairman, so they will use our money to sponsor the man for fresh course in bayern when our local coaches here are dying for that kind of attention.

They are very stupid , that’s how they lavish our money on nonsense when we have able men like Kanu Nwankwu, Amokachi, JJ and others that can do this coaching job very well . Nigeria is dead

Don't blame the coach but rather the lazy players whose feet are too heavy to carry them.

I never support any plans to sack the coach but he have to bring new players to the team
