Shuaibu Amodu failed to report for duty at the NFF, despite being scheduled to resume work last Monday.
Amodu was last week demoted from his position as coach of the Super Eagles and assigned to train the CHAN team comprising exclusively of domestic league players.
The team were directed to move into camp immediately under the direction of Amodu and his assistants. But the coach failed to report to the Glass House all of last week, and the NFF were forced to release a list of 34 players without the coach.
NFF spokesman Ademola Olajire said that the action was taken because the NFF were unsure whether or not Amodu would take up his new assignment.
“We don’t know if he will take the job or not, and we cannot hold up our preparations while we wait for him,” Olajire said. “The interim coaches, led by Erasmus Onuh, will train the team for now.”
Sources close to the coach, however, said that he is yet to receive a formal letter from the NFF notifying him of his redeployment.
