Former Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh and the Nigeria Football Federation are locked in a ‘war of words’ over unpaid salaries, four months after he resigned his position.
Oliseh said via his official Twitter account that he hoped the Federation pays him and his assistant Jean Francois Losciuto their entitlements while they are still alive.
“Hope the NFF will pay coach Losciuto & myself the huge amounts they still owe us without litigation whilst we are alive! Pray they listen.”

In its reaction, the NFF also took to its official Twitter account to deny owing Oliseh any money.
“The NFF can confirm it is not owing former @NGSuperEagles coach Sunday Oliseh, any money whatsoever.”
