National Stadium to be named after Keshi

There are indications that the federal government may name some of the National Stadiums in the country, after the late Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi.
“The final decision rests with the Federal Government, but the family is aware that there are such plans,” a family source informed AfricanFootball.

Already, the Lagos State Government in conjunction with the Sports Writer’s Association of Nigeria and the Nigeria Football Supporters Club, has set up a committee that will help plan the Lagos Farewell Testimonial Match in honour of Keshi and another ex national team coach, Amodu Shaibu.


The game is scheduled for the Teslim Balogun Stadium on July 23, 2016.
