Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi hands in resignation after winning 2013 Afcon title

The Super Eagles won the continental title by beating Burkina Faso on Sunday, but their boss has promptly left his post, claiming he was doing what he felt was "right"

Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has announced his resignation from the post just a day after their 2013 Africa Cup of Nations triumph.

The trainer's future had been subject to speculation throughout the tournament, and he has now revealed that he gave the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) his notice shortly after the final win over Burkina Faso.

"I did what I feel is right by resigning," he told Metro FM.

"I gave the NFF a letter last night [Sunday] after the celebrations."

The 51-year-old made 51 appearances for the Super Eagles as a player, and has held coaching posts with the Togolese and Malian national teams.
