The Super Eagles captain was kicked out of the team’s camp in Belgium after falling out with coach Sunday Oliseh on Tuesday but the NFF has now stepped in to halt the decision
The simmering problem in the camp of the Super Eagles between coach Sunday Oliseh and captain Vincent Enyeama boiled over on Tuesday when the goalkeeper was kicked out of the team’s hotel.
Enyeama arrived camp after Monday’s deadline, having been permitted to report late following Saturday’s burial of his mother in Akwa Ibom.
But tempers boiled over as he attempted to apologise to team mates for reporting late to camp when coach Oliseh ordered him to leave the hotel before calling on security officials to haul the goalkeeper out.
However, the Nigeria Football Federation has now stepped in to rescue the situation.
In a tweet, the NFF confirmed that there had been a “little misunderstanding” but that the goalkeeper is still with the team.
