Stephen Keshi had to come in to settle a feud between the Super Eagles duo of John Mikel Obi and Emmanuel Emenike.
According to reports, the two senior players have been at loggerheards
since the goalless draw against Greece last Wednesday, but after Keshi’s
intervention, they both hugged and shook hands.
“Keshi had a
family chat with the boys yesterday and in the meeting he made it known
to Mikel and Emenike that their rift is unsettling the team,” a source said.
“After a heated
exchange both players poured out their minds after which Keshi settled
them but not without getting involved in a shouting game with one of
them.”
“At the end both
players shook hands,hugged and even ended up in each other’s room
chatting before going to bed, it’s over thanks to Keshi spotting it
early.”
It is also understood that other squad players were given the chance to
pour out their minds, so every dispute could be settled ahead of
Nigeria’s participation at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.The Eagles faces
Iran in their opening Group F match on June 15.
