Emmanuel Attah returns as Super Eagle Cordinator


The Nigeria national team top official has returned to his post amidst claims that he was shut out of the team ahead of the remaining Afcon qualifiers

Emmanuel Attah has been restored to his post as Super Eagles' coordinator, Goal can report.
Attah, who had held that position for seven years was replaced with ex-international Garba Lawal after he was sacked alongside the backroom staff of Keshi on the heels of the Super Eagles' 3-1 victory over Sudan in Abuja.
Debunking remours making the rounds over his denied access to camp,  Eagles media officer  Ben Alaiya confirmed to Goal, that Attah has officially resumed his former role with the team.
Alaiya said that the returning team's coordinator was never denied access to the team's camp and had since been exercising his duties.
"He [Attah] has since been back with the team. He is with us [Super Eagles] in camp. I don't know where the reports that he was barred from the camp are coming from. He is with us and doing his job," Alaiya told Goal.
"The NFF has never commented about it since they asked Keshi and his backroom staff to return for the two remaining Afcon qualifying games," he said.
In a related development, the Super Eagles' team coordinator has expressed surprise at reports of his purported dismissal from the team's camp and insists he is not bothered.
"I'm surprise too at the rumours. I'm with the team and doing my work. I have been meeting with the coach and discussing on our crucial qualifying games ahead," Attah told Goal.
"Well, its unfortunate, this happens in Nigeria, but I’m focused and determined to carry out my duties. I will not get distracted by those rumours," he concluded.
