Keshi quits as Nigeria manager after African Cup triumph

Stephen Keshi has reportedly quit his post as manager of the Nigeria national team.

Keshi led the Super Eagles to the African Cup of Nations title on the weekend but has apparently called time on his tenure according to a radio station in Nigeria.

Metro FM presenter Robert Marawa posted on Twitter: "Stephen Keshi has just announced that he handed over his resignation letter after the game exclusively on 083Sport@6 With Marawa on MetroFM."

No official announcement has been made by the Nigerian Football Federation despite Keshi notifying them after the 1-0 win over Burkina Faso on Sunday.
