Former Nigeria international,
Sunday Ogochukwu Oliseh rejected the offer from Cameroon’s Football Federation
(FECAFOOT) to coach the Indomitable Lions while he was still the Chief Coach of
the Super Eagles, Sportinglife can reveal exclusively today.
Sportinglife gathered further
that Oliseh politely told his suitors that he couldn’t dump his fatherland to
coach Cameroon irrespective of the huge difference in what he was earning
coaching the Nigerian side and what the Cameroonians were offering, insisting
that he was enjoying his job with the Eagles.
Those close to the tactician
revealed that the coach, on the hindsight is ruing the missed opportunity to handle the Indomitable Lions following the unceremonious manner in which he
resigned from the plum Eagles job.
The Cameroonians moved on from
appointing Oliseh to secure the services of Hugo Broos, a Belgian, born on
April 10, 1952.
