Former Super Eagles boss, Samson Siasia, has been appointed as the new handler of the national Under-23 team coach, the Flying Eagles.
The Nigeria Football Federation disclosed this after an emergency meeting held on Thursday morning in Abuja.
Siasia, according to the NFF communique signed by the Chairman of the Communique Drafting Committee, Sulaiman Yahaya-Kwande, will be assisted by Fatai Amoo, while the Technical and Development Department will recommend the other members of the crew.
It will be recalled that Siasia guided the U-23 Eagles to a silver medal win in Beijing 2008 Olympics, where the team lost by a lone goal to star-studded Argentina side.
