The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, President, Amaju Pinnick, has paid a tribute to the late ex-Super Eagles Coach, Stephen Keshi, on Thursday, describing him as a super hero.
Speaking at the funeral mass in Benin, he said: “I have always described him as a super hero because he was a super hero. He did not do things that were regular he did things that were extraordinary.
“That (honour) is definitely going to be done.”
Keshi, a former national team captain and coach, died on June 8 in Benin at the age of 54, after a 44-month stint as coach of the Super Eagles.
He won the African Nations Cup, AFCON as a player in 1994 and as a coach in 2013.
