THE National Sports Commission on Tuesday confirmed that Super Eagles' coach Stephen Keshi has agreed to resume work preparatory to Nigeria's 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
A statement in Abuja by Patrick Omorodion, the Special Adviser on Media to the NSC Chairman, Tammy Danagogo, said Keshi's decision was based on Danagogo's intervention.

Keshi will go on with his job as Super Eagles' coach while the negotiation continues and the contract finally approved and signed."

The matches are slated for Sept. 6 at home in Calabar against Congo, and Sept. 10 away to South Africa.
NAN reports that Nigeria had been drawn alongside South Africa, Congo and Sudan in the qualifiers for the 2015 AFCON slated to hold in Morocco next January.
