Breach Of Contract : Nigerian Federation Technical Director Fires Back At Rohr

That, probably has not gone down well with the body, and its Technical Director, Mr. Bitrus Bewarang has hit back with the notion that it violates some of the clauses in his contract.

Prominent among the clauses is that "coaches must not by their actions or inaction cause NFF or the Federal Government of Nigeria any harm, reputational damage or embarrassment, nor do anything directly or indirectly to undermine their contract with the NFF" and another which states that "coaches must not misrepresent the NFF or distort information to the media. They are precluded from imparting unauthorized information to the media."

"In as much as we appreciate the work that Mr. Rohr has been doing with the Super Eagles in the past 40 months, his recent penchant for breaching provisions of the contract he signed with the NFF and the Code of Conduct for coaches is not good for the relationship", Bewarang was quoted saying as in Abuja on Wednesday.

"The NFF wishes that Mr. Rohr continues in the job because of the team he is building for Nigeria which looks promising and has earned some good results since he took charge, but he cannot continue to nonchalantly cause the NFF as a body, and Nigeria as a nation, reputational damage through his utterances and actions."
