Stephen Keshi Jnr, the first son of the late former Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi, has revealed that a date has not been announced for his father’s burial rites.
The 27-year-old who arrived at the NFF Secretariat on Wednesday, insisted that he was unaware of such plans and that nobody sought their consent.
“I just came into Nigeria on Tuesday night, and we read in the papers today that somebody has fixed a date for the burial,” he said.
“I am shocked like my sisters and my brothers. Since our father died, nobody has spoken to us about how he died, and we have not even seen his corpse. Yet, someone is fixing a date for his burial.”
Keshi Jnr however thanked the federal government, the National Assembly, the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Nigeria Football Federation, corporate organizations and individuals, for their show of concern since his father died.
