Oliseh withdraws law suit against NFF
By Our Reporter
SUNDAY Oliseh on Tuesday informed that he has withdrawn a lawsuit against the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), reports NaijaSportsXtra.
The ex-Juventus of Italy midfielder disclosed in a video message posted on his personal website and youtube that he made his decision after being placated to do so by "some well-meaning Nigerians".
"I have instructed my lawyers to withdraw the lawsuit against the NFF."
Recall Oliseh announced his resignation as coach of the national team less than three weeks ago.
The ex-Super Eagle captain cited breach of contract including non-payment of salaries by his employers before his resignation.
He had threatened to sue the Nigeria FA early this month, after the local football governing body made claims the backlog of salaries owed him were cleared shortly before his resignation as coach.
